Give the casserole a gentle stir if you like the cheese mixed in, or leave it as a melted layer on top. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot straight from the slow cooker.

Variations & Tips
You can easily tweak this casserole to fit your family’s tastes.
For picky eaters, use a mild cheddar or even shredded mozzarella for a softer flavor, and skip any extra seasonings so it stays simple and familiar.
If you’d like more flavor, stir in 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, or a little dried parsley when you mix the soup and broth.
To stretch the meal or sneak in some veggies, add 1 to 2 cups of frozen peas and carrots or mixed vegetables when you stir in the noodles; they’ll cook right along with the pasta.
