Ingredients
  

For the Casserole
  • 1 can Canned Chicken This provides a quick protein source; rotisserie chicken adds extra flavor.
  • 1 can Cream of Chicken Soup Creates a rich, creamy base; homemade white sauce is a great less-processed alternative.
  • 8 oz Egg Noodles Serve as the carbohydrate foundation; remember to cook and drain them well.
  • 1 cup Greek Yogurt Acts as a tangy, lower-fat substitute for mayo, keeping the dish moist and creamy.
For the Topping
  • 1 cup Panko Breadcrumbs Adds a delightful crispy topping; feel free to use regular breadcrumbs or crushed crackers if preferred.
  • 4 tbsp Salted Butter Enhances flavor and promotes browning; unsalted butter allows for more sodium control.
