Description

A creamy, cheesy, and addictive comfort food that cooks itself with pantry-friendly ingredients.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups cooked shredded or chopped chicken breast
  • 1 10.5 oz. can condensed chicken soup
  • 6 cups low-sodium chicken stock
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 2 medium carrots (sliced)
  • 1 1 oz. packet Ranch dressing mix
  • 12 slices of thick cut bacon (cooked and crumbled)
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mild cheddar cheese
  • 3/4 cup cream cheese (softened)
  • 8 oz. Thin Spaghetti or Angel Hair (uncooked)

Instructions

  1. Cook the bacon until crisp, drain, cut and crumble. Set aside.
  2. In a large Dutch oven, combine chicken, condensed soup, chicken stock, milk, cream cheese, carrots, celery, ranch dressing mix, and crumbled bacon. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Stir frequently to melt the cream cheese into a smooth sauce.
  4. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 20 – 25 minutes.
  5. Add noodles and cheese, stirring occasionally to prevent clumping, and simmer until noodles are fully cooked.
  6. Top with extra crumbled bacon if desired and serve hot.
