Description

Discover how to make a delicious tuna casserole that is perfect for any weeknight dinner. Our easy-to-follow recipe will have you coming back for seconds!


Ingredients

  • – 1 (340 g) package egg noodles
  • – 2 (298 g) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • – 2 cups (200 g) shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
  • – 2 (142 g) cans tuna, drained
  • – 1 cup (150 g) frozen green peas
  • – 1/2 (128 g) can sliced mushrooms
  • – 1/4 cup (60 ml) chopped onion
  • – 1 cup (75 g) crushed potato chips


Instructions

  1. Collect all the necessary items.
  2. Fill a big pot with water, add a pinch of salt, and heat until it reaches a rolling boil. Cook the egg noodles in this boiling water until they are soft but still have a bit of firmness, approximately 7 to 9 minutes; then drain them. While waiting, set the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) to preheat.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the noodles with the condensed soup, 1 cup of cheese, tuna, peas, mushrooms, and onion, stirring until everything is well mixed.
  4. Pour this mixture into a 9×13-inch baking pan.
  5. Sprinkle the top with the crushed potato chips and the remaining 1 cup of cheese.
  6. Place in the already heated oven and bake until the cheese becomes bubbly, which should take around 15 to 20 minutes.
  7. Serve while hot and enjoy your meal!

Notes

  • Consider adding a splash of milk to the condensed soup mixture for a creamier texture.
  • Experiment with Swiss or Gruyere cheese for a unique flavor profile.
  • Mix toasted breadcrumbs with crushed potato chips for added crunch before baking.
