CHICKEN NOODLE CASSEROLE image

I bake this at least twice a month. I work nights and it is great in my lunchbox. It microwaves well. It can also be frozen. It's nearly a one pot meal that can be made quickly on a weeknight or, if you're like me, cooked ahead and reheated when you need it. Enjoy!

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 c cooked boneless chicken breasts, chopped
12 oz medium egg noodles, cooked al dente
1 can(s) cream of chicken soup (family size)
1 c sour cream
1 c shredded cheddar cheese
FOR TOPPING
1 c bread crumbs
1/4 c salted butter, melted

Steps:

  • 1. Saute or baked chicken breasts (you can also shred a store-bought rotisserie chicken) and chop or dice
  • 2. Boil 1 12oz pkg of egg noodles for 1 to 2 minutes less than the directions in a large sauce pan. Drain but don't rinse. Put back in the pot off of the heat.
  • 3. Add chicken to the noodles. Pour in the soup and sour cream. Sprinkle in half of the cheese. Stir until well blended.
  • 4. Pour into a lightly greased 13x9 pan.
  • 5. Melt butter and mix in breadcrumbs. Sprinkle on top of the casserole. Sprinkle the remaining cheese.
  • 6. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes.
  • 7. You can also add vegetables to the casserole as well. Broccoli florets (steamed) and peas are two that work very well!
