Chicken Noodle Casserole Recipe

My 4 year old and I enjoyed this, picky 7 year old was not so keen, but he did eat it. I cut the recipe in half, except that I made the full amount of pasta and veggies. The cheese sauce could probably have used some other kind of cheese, I might add mozzarella or parm next time.

I enjoyed this recipe. Although I'm sure there is a typo in it. 2 cups of chicken is enough.

This is tasy but I didn't realize how much it made....I had to freeze some in singles sized ramekins. It's lots of prep work so it's not a weeknight venture.

I followed the recipe except that I added some frozen peas. I cut the recipe in half and still had enough left over to freeze for another two meals. We both thought it was very good, and I think it was even better the next day.

Very easy to make and was a hit. Def. needs the salt I usually do not put salt in dishes I make. I used Fettuccine Noodles because those are my favorite and I think next time I am going to add a little hot sauce.

Great recipe! I left out the mushrooms, we don't care for them..and I halved the recipe and it still made tons! Yum, leftovers. Next time i will add more veggies like broccoli.

I think it was probably supposed to say 1-2 instead of 12 cups of chicken - that is an insane amount of chicken.

EXCELLENT! I used cans of cooked chicken to cut my prep time and substituted panko bread crumbs for the cornflakes in the topping and it gave it a little extra cruch. I did cut the recipe in half and it still be a huge amount! It is wonderful for leftovers though and I would absolutely make again!

We enjoyed this; it was great comfort food for a cold Winter night. I cut the recipe in half to make just one casserole. Next time, though, I think I'll add more mushrooms and maybe double up on the veggies. (NOTE: We found the cornflake topping to be surprisingly flavorful thanks to the paprika and fresh parsley; it stayed much crunchier than breadcrumb toppings often do.)

Forgot to mention, instead of salt, use Mrs. Dash to season!!

Halving recipe is no problem but suggest no yolk noodles, unsalted butter and broth, no fat milk instead of half and half, and of course, nechtafel or 1/3 less fat cream cheese. Poach chicken breasts in lo sodium borth and then cut up. These changes will make this more friendly to those of us with health concerns.

I made this last night after seeing the recipe and the reviews. I made a couple slight changes, to accomodate my picky husband, and it was fabulous. He loved it! I cut the cream cheese in half, and added a cup of cheddar cheese to the sauce. Omitted mushrooms, even though I love them, and before I put the cornflake topping on, I sprinkled with another cup of cheddar cheese. It was delicious, and I will be making it again very soon!

This casserole sounds great, but do you think you can break it down for a regular dinner and not one to feed an army.?

Forgot to add... I used one rotisserie chicken to save time and it was plenty of meat for both casserole dishes.

Always use fresh garlic, it truly makes a difference. Instead of mushrooms, I used frozen chopped broccoli that was thawed first (rinse under hot water and then drain.) Instead of corn flakes, I used croutons for a much better flavor.

Does this recipe really need 12 cups of chicken? That seems like a lot, even for 2 casseroles.

I plan on cutting the recipe in half, but it still seems like six cups of chicken is a lot of chicken.

I'm guessing 12 cups, although I never made it. After all, it's 2 casserole dishes.

My hubby wouldn't touch it, said it looked like tuna noodle casserole. I liked it, but I don't eat cheese, used cream of mushroom soup. Didn't like the corn flakes though, I would use potatoe chips instead.

Excellent meal on a cold winter night! I will definitely be adding this to my regular repertoire.

The whole family loved it! Didn't have any paprika on hand, but I don't think it mattered. I don't even think anyone added salt or pepper to their meal.

I have made some variations as well that work too....try using grated cheddar cheese, about 1 C in lieu of cream cheese. You can use sour cream if you do not have Half'n'Half, you can use 2 Tbsp of dried minced onion in lieu of an onion, and 1 Tbsp of Beau Monde if you do not have fresh celery. I use fresh ground pepper as well, and have used and not used paprika with good results.

Tried this recipte. I was told it was good, but it lacked something to me. I will try one more time using something to spice it up.
