Tuna Casserole

 ·   ·  ☕ 2 min read  ·  🤖 ks

Kevin’s turn to cook again, so a bit of research turned up this recipe from tasteofhome. I used half measures for the two of us, and there are lots of leftovers. Didn’t have the condensed mushroom soup, so Alma “made a roux” with flour, water, lightly sauteed onions, then we added the sour cream etc. Also used cheddar instead of parmesan cheese.

Ingredients

  • 5 cups uncooked egg noodles
  • 1 cup frozen peas (optional)
  • 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) reduced-fat reduced-sodium condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
  • 1 cup fat-free sour cream (or refill the soup can with 2% milk)
  • 2/3 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1/3 cup 2% milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cans (5 ounces each) light tuna in water, not drained and flaked
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped green pepper (optional)
  • several large mushrooms, sliced.

Topping (optional)

  • 1/2 cup soft bread crumbs
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Cook noodles according to package directions for al dente, adding peas during the last minute of cooking; drain.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine soup, sour cream, cheese, milk and salt; stir in tuna, onion, mushrooms and pepper.
  • Add noodles and peas; toss to combine.
  • Transfer to an 11x7-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray.
  • In a small bowl, toss bread crumbs with melted butter; sprinkle over top.
  • Bake, uncovered, 25-30 minutes or until bubbly.
