    TikTok Cafeteria Noodles

    This recipe was inspired by Carols_Cookin on TikTok and it was quick and tasty. You can serve it as a main dish or a side with your favorite protein.

    The egg noodles are cooked in chicken broth and bullion and then mixed in a can of chicken soup and finished with butter.

    You can certainly add your own twist by adding fresh minced garlic and herbs for more flavor.

    Cafeteria noodles ingredients:

    • Egg noodles: These are a type of pasta that contains eggs and wheat. They are affordable and perfect for the buttery sauce to cling.
    • Chicken broth: This recipe uses a carton of chicken broth. I like the unsalted broth so I can modify the flavor to my taste.
    • Chicken bouillon: In this recipe the "better than bouillon" paste adds color and flavor.
    • Butter: I used unsalted butter.
    • Fresh pepper: Optional

    Instructions

    Boil the chicken broth with a tablespoon of chicken bouillon. Add the egg noodles and reduce to a simmer.

    Add the can of cream of chicken and simmer on medium-low heat until the sauce reduces.

    Add the butter and mix well. Serve and sprinkle parsley.
