EASY CREAMY CHICKEN & NOODLE BAKE
I think I clipped this from an egg noodle ad. I have always used the green bean option. Try to make sure the noodles are reasonably in the liquid. You might want to poke them down during cooking when they become more malleable. I usually end up with a few crunchy noodles.

Tips:
- Choose the right noodles: For a classic chicken noodle bake, use egg noodles or wide egg noodles. For a healthier option, use whole wheat noodles.
- Don't overcook the noodles: Cook the noodles according to the package directions, but be careful not to overcook them. Overcooked noodles will become mushy and won't hold their shape in the casserole.
- Use a variety of vegetables: Add your favorite vegetables to the chicken noodle bake. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, peas, broccoli, and cauliflower.
- Use a creamy sauce: A creamy sauce will help to bind the ingredients together and make the casserole more flavorful. You can make a simple cream sauce by melting butter and whisking in flour, then gradually adding milk and stirring until the sauce thickens.
- Season the casserole well: Don't forget to season the casserole with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and thyme.
- Top the casserole with cheese: A layer of cheese on top of the casserole will help to brown it and give it a delicious crust. You can use any type of cheese you like, but cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan are all good options.
- Bake the casserole until it's bubbly and golden brown: Bake the casserole in a preheated oven until it's bubbly and golden brown. The exact baking time will vary depending on the size of your casserole dish and the type of noodles you're using.
