Ingredients

  • 16 ounces wide egg noodles
  • 2 boneless chicken breasts cooked and cubed
  • 1 can 10.75 ounces condensed cream of potato soup
  • 1 can 10.75 ounces condensed cream of broccoli soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup frozen broccoli
  • 1 can 15 ounces mixed vegetables, drained
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 2 cups shredded Colby cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.
  • Cook the egg noodles according to package directions until just tender. Drain well.
  • In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the cooked chicken, cream of potato soup, cream of broccoli soup, milk, mixed vegetables, broccoli, salt, pepper, and thyme.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is tender and the mixture is heated through.
  • Add the cooked noodles to the sauce and stir until evenly coated.
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Cover with foil.
  • Bake for 20 minutes.
  • Remove the foil, sprinkle the shredded Colby cheese evenly over the top, and return to the oven.
  • Bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Let rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Chicken Shortcut: Use rotisserie chicken for faster prep.
  • Vegetable Swap: Fresh broccoli works well; lightly steam before adding.
  • Cheese Options: Cheddar or Monterey Jack can replace Colby.
  • Make Ahead: Assemble and refrigerate up to 24 hours before baking.
  • Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
