Ingredients

  • Cream of chicken soup: gives the sauce its signature rich creamy texture Look for a low sodium variety to control salt
  • Cream of celery soup: adds an herby background note and helps thicken the dish
  • Low sodium chicken broth: keeps everything savory yet balanced and lets the chicken flavor shine
  • Poultry blend seasoning: infuses the sauce with tons of flavor Choose a blend that smells fresh and check ingredient labels for real herbs and spices
  • Black pepper: offers gentle heat and suits most palates Freshly cracked gives the brightest taste
  • Herbs de Provence or Italian seasoning: provides an aromatic lift Try to use a dried blend with visible herb leaves for best results
  • Frozen mixed vegetables: add color nutrition and convenience Check the ingredient list for a good mix like carrots peas corn and green beans
  • Boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs: cook up tender and juicy Choose well trimmed pieces with no excess fat for easy shredding later
  • Garlic and herb seasoning: coats the chicken and infuses additional flavor A salt free blend allows more control over salt
  • Frozen egg noodles like Reames: give you old fashioned chewy texture They hold up beautifully in the crockpot and taste handmade

I always look forward to the Reames frozen egg noodles the most Their hearty chew reminds me of Grandma’s homemade noodles from Sunday dinners When we make this together my youngest always insists on stirring them in at the end

Storage Tips

Store leftover chicken pot pie noodles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days Make sure to cool it fully before covering To freeze spoon portions into freezer safe bags lay flat and freeze up to three months Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat gently with a splash of extra broth

Ingredient Substitutions

You can swap chicken thighs for breasts if you like a juicier meat Any frozen vegetables will work including extra peas or even a California blend If you cannot find frozen egg noodles dried pasta will work just be sure to cook separately and stir in at the end Cream of mushroom soup is also a good alternative for added depth

Serving Suggestions

Spoon a generous helping into a wide shallow bowl and top with cracked pepper for a hearty meal Pair with a crisp green salad or soft dinner rolls to soak up every bit of the creamy sauce For a fun twist try topping with a handful of crushed buttery crackers right before serving
