Instructions
Start by melting the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Once melted, add the chopped vegetables and sauté until they’re tender and fragrant. Next, pour in the soups and chicken broth, stirring until everything is fully combined and heated through.Gradually add the cubed cheese, stirring constantly to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Once the cheese is nearly melted, stir in the canned tomatoes and continue stirring until the mixture is smooth and the cheese is fully incorporated.If the soup feels too thick, add a bit more broth or juice from another tomato can—you’re aiming for a creamy, chowder-like consistency. After that, stir in the cooked chicken and allow it to warm through. Finally, add the cooked noodles and gently combine everything together.Taste and season with seasoned salt and pepper as needed. If you're serving the dish later for a crowd, transfer it to foil pans and add a few splashes of broth to help keep the noodles moist while refrigerated. When ready to serve, reheat slowly in the oven until warmed through.
