Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 2 cups egg noodles, cooked
- 1 cup cream of chicken soup (or Greek yogurt)
- ½ cup milk
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
- 1 cup peas or mixed veggies
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375 °F (190 °C) to prepare for baking the casserole.
- Combine ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken, cooked egg noodles, cream of chicken soup (or Greek yogurt), milk, peas or mixed vegetables, and about ¾ cup of the cheddar cheese. Mix until everything is evenly incorporated.
- Prepare baking dish: Lightly grease a baking dish with butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
- Assemble casserole: Spread the mixed ingredients evenly into the greased baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
Notes
- For a crunchy topping, sprinkle crushed crackers or panko breadcrumbs over the cheese before baking.
- You can substitute the cream of chicken soup with Greek yogurt for a healthier, tangier alternative.
- Use fresh or frozen peas or mixed vegetables depending on availability.
- Shredded rotisserie chicken works great for convenience.
