Recipe - Chicken Spaghetti

This is one of my favorite meals. It's actually better left over.

Chicken Spaghetti

2 Packages chicken breast strips (or 4 or 5 breasts)
1/2 Large pkg spaghetti noodles
1 Can Cream of Chicken soup
1 Can Cream of Celery soup
1 Can Cream of Mushroom soup
2 Large jars jalapeno Cheese Whiz
4 Celery sticks
1 Pkg fresh mushrooms (sliced)
1 Medium onion (chopped)
1 Pkg slivered almonds
Grated cheddar cheese
Butter

Boil chicken until done and place chicken in a large bowl saving the water. When the chicken is done and cool enough to handle, dice into fairly small pieces.

Cook spaghetti noodles in the same water that the chicken cooked in per the noodle instructions.

In a skillet, brown the onion, celery and mushrooms in butter.

Mix Cheese Whiz and the soups in a bowl and heat in microwave until it is able to mix easily. Pour this mixture over the chicken. Add the onions, celery and mushroom then mix it well.

Add the strained noodles and almonds. Mix well then put in a large baking dish. Cover with grated cheese.

Cook in preheated oven at 375° for about 30 minutes.
