It's no secret I love my slow cooker. I received it a couple years ago as a wedding gift, and have fallen in love with it. Just the other night, I whipped it out and threw a bunch of stuff together, hoping for the best, and luckily, the best dang chicken spaghetti came out. So without any fuss or further ado, here's a recipe for those days that you don't feel like slaving in the kitchen, but still want to have something absolutely delicious on the table for dinner.
