Rebel Recipes: Here’s a yummy chicken spaghetti as you get ready to watch Ole Miss beat Georgia Tech!
OXFORD, Miss. — When it’s still a little too warm for soup, but fall is knocking on the door, it’s time for a cheesy casserole. In my kitchen, one of the most important staples for football season is Velveeta cheese. Note that no substitute will do. This is a situation where you must buy the name brand. Additionally, I prefer the white Velveeta (Queso Blanco).
The recipe for this week is Chicken Spaghetti. It’s a crowd pleaser and easy to prepare ahead of time to be ready for our 6:30 kickoff.
Go Rebels! Beat Georgia Tech!
