How to make Hearty Chicken Noodle Casserole
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 375 degrees F.
Step 2: Following the package directions, cook the egg noodles in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente. Drain when done and set aside.
Step 3: Place the soups and heavy cream in a large bowl. Mix well until combined. Next, add the frozen veggies along with the cheddar cheese, cubed chicken, and egg noodles. To taste, season with garlic salt, and pepper.
Step 4: Into a large casserole dish, pour the mixture. To remove the air bubbles, lightly tap it against the counter, then smooth the mixture out.
Step 5: Place the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and melted butter in another bowl. Mix well until combined, then evenly sprinkle this over the casserole.
Step 6: Place in the preheated oven and bake the casserole for about 30 to 35 minutes or until the veggies are tender and the sauce is bubbly.
Step 7: When done, take the casserole out of the oven and allow it to cool for about 5 minutes. Then, ladle into serving bowls and garnish with extra cheese. Enjoy!
