Once when my parents were visiting from out of town, I served the following dish.  My father called me a Casserole Queen.  At that point I realized how often I served casseroles, especially when having company.  I enjoy having almost all the work done so there is very little to do prior to sitting down to enjoy a meal.

2 cups spaghetti, broken into pieces. 

1/2 cup butter, melted

1 cup chopped green onions

1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced

2 cups largely diced ham

1 1/2 cups largely 

diced chicken

Salt and pepper to taste

12 ounces sour cream

1 cup cottage cheese

1 1/2 cups grated 

Cheddar cheese

Boil spaghetti for 10 minutes and drain.  Lightly brown onions and mushrooms in butter.  Add ham, chicken, and seasonings.  Heat thoroughly.  Add sour cream and cottage cheese to cooked spaghetti and mix.  Then add ham and chicken mixture and stir.  Place in a greased casserole.  Sprinkle with grated cheese.  Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes.
