Ingredients
- 8 ounces pasta of your choice I recommend egg noodles
- 1 cup breadcrumbs fresh or storebought
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese divided
- 1 cup milk
- 1 14 ounces cream of chicken soup (click to make your own)
- ½ cup red bell pepper diced
- ½ cup green bell pepper diced
- ½ cup celery diced
- 8 ounces solid tuna 2 cans
OPTIONAL
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley minced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F.
- In a large saucepan, cook the pasta in salted water for slightly less than it recommends on the package (around 2 mins less).
- Drain pasta, and set aside.
- Meanwhile, add the breadcrumbs to a small bowl, and add the melted butter. Mix until well combined, then add half the cheese.
- Pour the milk and soup into a large saucepan, and mix well.
- Add the vegetables, the other half of the cheese and the tuna.
- Heat over a medium heat until JUST beginning to bubble around the edges.
- Stir in the parsley if using, then remove from the heat.
- Add the pasta to the tuna mixture, and mix until well blended.
- Pour into a 8 x 8 casserole dish, and top with the breadcrumbs/cheese mixture.
- Bake at 400F for 30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let it stand for 5-10 minutes.
- Devour.
Notes
- Kylee's Notes for Classic Tuna Noodle Casserole
- Kylee's Notes for Classic Tuna Noodle Casserole
- You can sub any kind of condensed creamed soup you like – mushroom, celery, cheese – you choose!
- Fresh breadcrumbs are awesome, but either fresh or store bought works great
- Add more cheese if you like it cheesier!
- Play around with the vegetables – frozen corn, green beans, peas, carrots – are all good choices in this.
- If the mixture seems dry (it should be "sauce-y" before baking) add a little more milk
