Shredded chicken, veggies, bacon, plenty of cheese, a rich creamy sauce, and a crunchy onion topping… hungry yet? This chicken noodle casserole is so hearty and perfect for a family meal!
Whew. I think we all need a collective sigh after the holidays right? Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE Thanksgiving… the food, spending time with family, the time off of work.. it’s all amazing! For those of us who had to actually cook all that fantastic food… it’s also a LOT of work. Work most of us love, but work nonetheless!
