For a richer flavor, consider using chicken broth instead of water. Adjust the amount of chili powder to your preferred level of spice. Other toppings can be added, such as sour cream or avocado. Ensure the spaghetti is properly toasted before adding the wet ingredients, as this greatly enhances the dish's flavor. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a little more water to achieve the desired consistency.
