Chicken Noodle Casserole
Love comfort food? What tops your list when you think of comfort food? For me, casserole & soup. I was craving both the other day & couldn’t decide which to make. So I decided to combine the two & create this AMAZING Chicken Noodle Casserole. It was so easily put together.
I used some extra pulled chicken I had made the night before- so it was a great use of leftovers. But – you could also use a Rotisserie chicken if you like to buy those. That makes this dish so simple. I just mixed the ingredients, cooked my noodles- stir, top & bake. I’m not kidding when I say it’s beyond easy & the family was raving over it.
This casserole works out great as a make-ahead freezer meal. I just go through the prep & then place it in a foil pan & cover. Place in the freezer marked with the date & instructions written on the outside. Then when you want to enjoy it – just transfer to the refrigerator the night before to thaw a bit. Then bake at the same temperature for about 15-20 minutes longer- or until hot & bubbling. (this depends on your oven)
I usually double or quadruple this recipe & make a bunch of these to freeze. Then I send a couple back to the apartment with the hubs & keep a couple here too. So good to have dinner ready with such little effort. When making for dinner that night I use my favorite casserole dish, but those foil pans are so handy for make-ahead meals.
