Chicken Noodle Casserole

Chicken noodle soup is a comfort classic… but is there anything more comforting than casserole? Not in our book. This chicken noodle-casserole mashup ups the comfort quotient considerably; it’s like a medley of comfort classics all in one!

Sometimes you just need something a little heartier than soup, and this dish does the trick. It’s super easy to throw together – just toss some cooked egg noodles with shredded rotisserie chicken, some frozen mixed veggies, and a couple of cans of classic condensed chicken noodle soup. Oh and cheese. Why? There’s no cheese in chicken noodle soup. Well, no, there’s not, but cheese is kind of a casserole staple. And it does only good things here.

Melted butter and delicate Panko bread crumbs get sprinkled over the top, and as it bakes it forms a crunchy topping that only adds to the classic flavor. It’s an easy dinner to put together on a frenzied weeknight, but you’ll probably feel like making it when you have ample time too. It’s that good. And that comforting.
