Simple Chicken Noodle Casserole

This simple chicken noodle casserole is perfect for a weeknight meal. It’s a quick and easy recipe that the whole family will adore. Bake one up soon and enjoy every mouthful!

When it’s a busy weeknight and you are rushing here and there after a long day at work, it’s nice to come home and be able to throw a meal together without a lot of steps and ingredients.

This casserole is creamy and so delicious. Most of the time I use chicken that comes already cooked and cut up. A rotisserie chicken works well for this recipe. If you happen to have leftover chicken from the night before use that.

Turkey works great too. This is a perfect casserole for leftover turkey from Thanksgiving.

You don’t have to add a separate veggie or starch, it’s all in this one yummy casserole.

By the way, this is great for potluck dinners and any gathering.

Easy to double and triple.
