MILLION DOLLAR CHICKEN CASSEROLE
Creamy and incredibly savory, it's a casserole that's hard to stop eating. The cottage cheese is the trick to getting such a creamy, melty texture. Using rotisserie chicken is a must for the recipe and helps keep it quick.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish.
- Cook spaghetti to al dente as directed on package.
