Creamy Crockpot Chicken and Noodles
Thick and hearty chicken and noodles are a major comfort food! This recipe cooks in the crockpot, so it's easy to throw together and the whole family loves it. Kind of a soup, kind of too thick to really be a soup - just totally delicious and comforting.

Notes
- We like this fairly thick and creamy. For more of a soup consistency, add more chicken broth after cooking to reach your desired consistency.
- Want it even thicker? Add 2 tablespoons water to 1 tablespoon cornstarch and stir well to combine. Whisk into the mixture during step 5.
- My kids prefer this without the peas and carrots and sometimes we leave them out, depending on if I feel like making vegetables on the side.
- You can also use a bag of frozen mixed vegetables (green beans, corn, carrots, etc.) in place of the peas and carrots.
