Ingredients
- 2 cup cooked chicken, shredded
- 4 cup chicken broth
- 2 cup water
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 ounce cream cheese, softened
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Notes
For a healthier twist, you can substitute low-fat or non-dairy alternatives for the heavy cream and cream cheese. Gluten-free egg noodles or even zucchini noodles can also be used to accommodate dietary restrictions.
