Classic Tuna Noodle Casserole
Recipes » Main Dish » Casseroles
A favorite from the 1950's. OK, it's definitely not elegant, but it's very easy comfort food that can come together from items in your pantry.
"Awesome recipe! I changed it up a little though to fit my taste. I'm not a fan of mushrooms so I didn't add the mushrooms and used cream of celery soup instead. Also, I swapped the peas for 2/3 cup of grated carrots. If you're using elbow pasta instead of egg noodles, use about 8 oz. of pasta." - kmthreshYield: 8 Ready in 50 minutes

Notes Classic Tuna Noodle Casserole Preparation
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Boil water in a large stockpot. Into the rapidly boiling water, cook the egg noodles for exactly 6 minutes. Rinse briefly in cold water to cool, and drain thoroughly.
Place into a large bowl, along with cream of mushroom soup, cheese, peas, tuna, and mushrooms. Mix gently but thoroughly.
(Optional) with a vegetable-oil dampened paper towel, lightly oil a casserole dish to prevent later sticking.
Bake casserole, covered, in 350-degree oven for 45-55 minutes. (Optionally, top with seasoned breadcrumbs and cook another 10 minutes uncovered.)

Added Rotel tomatoes in place of mushrooms. Sprinkled French fried onions on top last 10 minutes. Adds a little more flavor.

Yummmmmmy. Added celery salt and used two cans of soup ( adds moisture for left over reheating). This recipe is healthy, easy, and FAST!!!

Added crumbled Lay's potato chips on top the last 10 minutes. Everyone loved it. ;)

I liked the egg noodles, but the flavor was a little bland.

It's hard to hate on tuna noodle casserole. I like to add a little sour cream to the mix, but otherwise this is pretty much the definitive recipe.

It's OK. Not bad. Not great. It is easy. I just think there are better tuna casserole recipes on this site that are almost as easy.

This was great! I was pinched for time so I made the soup, mixed in the ingredients (minus cheese) and then tossed in wheat egg noodles and it was awesome! My three year old, who typically doesn't like 'saucy' noodles, loved it! I also made it another time with chicken. Yum!!

Made this tonight. Added sautéed onions, 3 cans tuna,used 2 cans cream of mushroom soup, 1/2 cup milk, 2 teaspoons garlic powder, and sprinkled paprika on top before baking. Delicious. Served with cheesy garlic bread.

It tasts better if you put a little lemon in it too. ;D

It was a great easy recipe to make with kids. Could have used more cream of mushroom soup, as the noodles were a tad on the dry side.

Kids liked it but I had to put 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup in to get the consistency. I was looking for.
