Cheesy Chicken Casserole

Since there is only two of us, I continually try to make recipes that cater to two. This, however, is not one of those recipes. My husband likes it so much he looks forward to the leftovers. It is simple to make, so simple that he usually helps. I would say it serves about six.

Ingredients:
1 lb chicken breast
1 8oz block sharp cheddar cheese
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 package of noodles (I use the wide egg noodles)
1/2 cup milk
Pepper to taste
Breadcrumbs

Directions:

First cook about the chicken, I either grill it or cook it on the stove. Cube it then set aside.

Set your oven to 350 degrees.
1. Boil a pot of water and cook noodles according to directions. Drain and set aside.
2.Shred 8oz of sharp cheddar cheese.
3. Combine noodles and cheese in a large casserole dish.
4. Add the cans of cream of chicken and chicken and mix it all together. Add in the milk and mix as well.
*I almost always add a little more cheese, whatever is on hand, usually Parmesan to add a little extra flavor.
5. Add pepper to taste and make sure everything is combined well.
6. Sprinkle breadcrumbs on top and then bake for 30 mins

Enjoy!!
