Chicken and noodles are often seen together in soup. Everyone has had a bowl of chicken soup while sick or after coming in from the cold! This hearty chicken and noodles recipe will leave your whole family feeling warm, cozy, and satisfied.
Many of these ingredients are classic crock pot ingredients. Carrots and onion are commonly used in a wide variety of slow cooker recipes, and garlic salt, pepper, and basil are common seasonings. All of these ingredients are easy to find.
Except for the egg noodles, all of the ingredients will need to cook together for eight hours. Depending on how your day is structured, this means you may be able to let this recipe cook while you're away at work. Being able to come home to an almost-complete dinner is a gift.
We say “almost complete” because you'll still need to cook the egg noodles. This is a very easy process, however, and shouldn't be stressful or too time-consuming. Mix the cooked noodles in with the other ingredients, and enjoy!
