Chicken Noodle Casserole

This was really easy and delicious. Husband and child approved!

Chicken Noodle Casserole
1 - 1 1/2 pounds chicken
8 oz of angel hair pasta
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of broccoli (or whatever else you have on hand)
8 oz of sour cream
1 can sliced carrots, drained
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 stick butter
1 cup Ritz crackers, crushed

Boil chicken in salted water until no longer pink. Take out chicken, and cut into small bites. Return the water used for the chicken to a boil, and add the pasta. Cook until barely al dente.

Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, combine cream of chicken, cream of broccoli and sour cream. Add the carrots. Stir in the garlic powder, plus some salt and pepper. Then add the chicken, and cooked pasta, plus about 1/2 cup of the pasta water.

Pour into casserole dish. Melt butter in a bowl and add crushed crackers. Stir, then add to top of casserole.

Bake uncovered at 350 for about 30 minutes or until nice and bubbly.

If you are not pregnant, enjoy with a glass of white wine. Otherwise, a nice tall glass of cold milk is perfect!
