Easy Chicken Casserole

Something I like to make when I just really don't feel like doing much. Most of the stuff is already in the pantry so its easy and tasty and it will leave you enough left over for lunch the next day.

You will need:

- 1 8oz can cream of chicken soup
- 1 8oz can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 1/2 small white onion finely diced
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 package egg noodles
- 2 cups shredded cheddar
- 2 cans shredded chicken, drained
- 1/4 cup bread crumbs

Preheat oven to 375.

In a large bowl combing soups and milk. Mix thoroughly then add veggies, chicken and 1 cup cheese, set aside.

Prepare noodles according to package directions and drain.

In a large casserole or lasagna dish mix the noodles and soup mixture together and spread evenly. Top with bread crumbs* and remaining cheese. Cover with foil and bake or 20 minutes then remove foil and bake an additional 10-15 or until the top is bubbly.

Serve with a simple salad an you're done!

Enjoy!

*Turn this into a heartier meal by adding another 1/2 cup milk and omitting the breadcrumbs. Instead, top with cheese and cover and cook for 20 minutes, remove foil and top with pre-packaged biscuits (like those ones that come in the scary pop cans) and cook an additional 10-12 minutes.
