my mother is making chicken spagetti tonight and she wants me to come over and eat with her. can anyone tell me how many points homemade chicken spagetti is?? she makes it pretty thick with a lot of cheese and rotel tomatos and campbell's cream of mushroom sauce.
I don't know how many points it is but it sounds like the same recipe that i used to use but now my nana uses (and I can't refuse it lol it's my fav.!) So I just get me a small portion of it and use all my extra flex points to just make sure that I have it covered. You should be ok if you do that. Oh man I love that stuff! Now I'm craving it lol! Hope that helped!
I have never heard of it so your best bet is to break it down. We know that 1 cup of pasta is ~4 points, cheese is 3 points per ounce, chicken if breast and without skin is 1 poitn per ounce, the cream of mush soup is like 1 or 2 points per serving with 2.5 serviings per can (usually)
I found this recipe by doing a Google search
I think the entire recipe would have about 57 points, unless you'd use
light velveeta (My estimates are based on memory, so I could be wrong)
4 boneless chicken breast halves, cooked and chopped
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can chicken broth
1 can Rotel tomatoes with green chilies
1 small jar pimientos
1 pound Velveeta cheese, cubed or shredded
12 ounce package linguine noodles
salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION:
Boil linguine until done. Mix together soup, broth, tomatoes, pimientos. Layer in a baking dish: linguine, chopped chicken, soup mixture. Cover with the cheese and bake at 350° until cheese is melted. Stir mixture before serving and add salt and pepper to taste.
