Dump cream style corn over chicken breasts, along with 2 ingredients, into slow cooker for a hearty meal that disappears faster than anything else

For a richer, creamier supper, replace 1 cup of the chicken broth with a can of cream of chicken soup or a cup of half-and-half stirred in during the last 30 minutes of cooking. If you like a little color and sweetness, add 1 cup of frozen corn or peas and carrots along with the noodles. You can also swap the chicken breasts for boneless, skinless chicken thighs for an even more tender, old-fashioned texture. If you prefer firmer noodles, cook the egg noodles separately on the stovetop and stir them into the shredded chicken and corn mixture right before serving. For extra flavor, add a teaspoon of dried parsley or thyme, or a small minced onion at the beginning with the chicken. Leftovers thicken as they sit; the next day, loosen with a splash of broth or milk while reheating on the stove over low heat.
