Ingredients You’ll Need

(6-quart slow cooker; serves 6)

  • 1½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 2 (10.75 oz) cans cream of chicken soup (or cream of mushroom for variation)
  • 1 (16 oz) bag frozen mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, corn, green beans)
  • 1 (12 oz) package wide egg noodles
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • Salt & black pepper to taste
  • Optional: ½ tsp dried thyme, 1 bay leaf, or ½ cup heavy cream (add at end)

💡 Pro Tips:

  • Add noodles last—they’ll turn to mush if cooked all day.
  • Use low-sodium broth—canned soup is already salty.
  • Shred chicken after cooking—it’s easier and more tender.
