Equipment

  • skillet
  • Whisk
  • Sauce pot
  • Rubber Spatula
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Hand Mixer optional
  • vegetable chopper or knife and cutting board

Ingredients

  • 1 box chickpea shell noodles Banza
  • 2 large chicken breasts cooked and shredded
  • ½ cup white onion diced
  • 1 bag frozen vegetable medley (I used Green Giant with corn, carrots, green beans and peas)
  • 5.3 oz plain Greek yogurt (1 serving size container)
  • 3 cups chicken broth divided
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • ¼ cup all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried minced onion
  • ½ tsp celery salt
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tbsp Green Goddess Seasoning Trader Joe's
  • salt & pepper
  • 16 Ritz crackers
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  • Prepare the vegetables and chicken first. Finely dice white onion and shred the chicken.
  • In a medium sauce pot, bring 2 cups of chicken broth to a boil. While waiting on that, add milk to a mixing bowl. Whisk in flour until it’s almost completely dissolved. Set aside.
  • Heat a large skillet to medium-high heat. Spray with cooking spray and add diced onions and the frozen vegetables.
  • Once the chicken broth is boiling, add the flour + milk mixture. Bring it to a bowl while whisking quickly. Add ½ tsp garlic powder, minced onions, celery salt, paprika, and dried thyme to the mixture. Stir. Reduce to a simmer.
  • Add the shredded cooked chicken into the skillet and stir with the sautéed vegetables.
  • Pour the uncooked noodles into the skillet. Then pour the creamy sauce into this skillet, over all of the noodles/vegetables. Add the remaining 1 cup of chicken broth and stir so all of the noodles are completely coated in liquid (this is how they’ll cook).
  • Reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Allow the noodles to cook for 25-30 minutes, stirring a few times throughout.
  • Stir in remaining green goddess seasoning, crushed up ritz crackers, and salt + pepper.
  • Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

A traditional skillet won’t be large enough for Chicken Noodle Soup Casserole, you need one with higher sides. Use a dutch oven if needed.
If you use regular noodles instead of chickpea noodles, it WILL take longer for them to cook and you may need up to ½ cup more broth.
