This is the recipe my daughters and I often make for new parents when they come home from the hospital. With its creamy spaghetti filling and melted cheese topping, this casserole holds a nice cut and comforts hungry tummies. —Fancheon Resler, Bluffton, Indiana

Ingredients

1 package (16 ounces) spaghetti, broken
2 medium onions, chopped
1 medium green pepper, chopped
1 medium sweet red pepper, chopped
1/2 cup butter, cubed
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups 2% milk

Meanwhile, in a Dutch oven, saute onions and peppers in butter until tender. Stir in flour until blended; gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in chicken, soups, sour cream, celery salt and pepper.
