TUNA NOODLE DUMP DINNER



Tuna Noodle Dump Dinner image

This creamy tuna-noodle dump dinner is made entirely in one baking dish, egg noodles included. It tastes just like the casserole you grew up eating but requires less equipment (and cleanup). Instead of using the classic cream of mushroom soup, we opted for a combination of cheese, broth, heavy cream and sour cream, which provides the same velvety texture.

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Nonstick cooking spray
2 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup sour cream
4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature (about 1/2 cup)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 scallions, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 12-ounce bag wide egg noodles
Two 5-ounce cans white albacore tuna, drained and flaked
6 ounces cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
1 1/2 cups frozen peas, thawed
8 ounces mild Cheddar, shredded (about 2 cups; preferably from a block and not pre-shredded)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Generously spray the bottom and sides of a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish with nonstick spray.
  • Whisk the chicken broth, heavy cream, sour cream, cream cheese, mustard, scallions, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl until smooth and no lumps of cream cheese remain.
  • Spread half the noodles in an even layer in the bottom of the prepared dish. Scatter half of the tuna, mushrooms and peas over the pasta. Pour half of the broth mixture over the top, then sprinkle with 1 cup of the Cheddar. Repeat to make a second layer with the remaining noodles, tuna, mushrooms and peas.
  • Cover tightly with foil and bake until the noodles are al dente, about 40 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup Cheddar evenly on top. Bake until the cheese has melted and the sauce has thickened slightly, 10 to 12 minutes. Let the casserole sit for about 10 minutes before serving.

QUICK AND EASY STOVE TOP TUNA CASSEROLE



Quick and Easy Stove Top Tuna Casserole image

My mom used to make tuna casserole on the stove top. I still like it more than a baked version. This is a basic comfort dish that is ready in minutes. You don't need to defrost the peas......but you can always add them to the noodles the last couple minutes of boiling if you'd rather.

QUICK AND EASY STOVE-TOP TUNA NOODLE CASSEROLE



Quick and Easy Stove-Top Tuna Noodle Casserole image

This recipe is as easy as making a box of macaroni and cheese (almost), and it's a one dish comfort meal. I've been making this as long as I can remember, and don't think I ever had a recipe for it. When I made it this week, I looked to see if it was posted, and I could only find recipes with "cream of whatever" soup or sour cream, and most of them required baking in the oven. This recipe is creamy and delicious from the simple bechamel (white) sauce. This is a flexible recipe, too. I love to use a generous amount of a mixed pepper blend, freshly ground, for seasoning because I don't like bland food. I've also used lemon pepper seasoning, and/or freshly snipped chives and parsley. It's up to you to choose your favorite seasoning or herbs to go nicely with the tuna. Tuna noodle casserole is one of the most popular American casseroles, and is common is any region of the U.S.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper, less if you prefer less spice
1 -2 tablespoon of chopped fresh herbs, such as chives (optional) or 1 -2 tablespoon parsley (optional)
2 (6 ounce) cans tuna, drained (I prefer albacore solid packed in water)
1 1/2 cups frozen peas
8 ounces wide egg noodles, cooked

Steps:

  • Cook the egg noodles.
  • During the last few minutes add the frozen peas to the simmering noodles; then drain.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  • Whisk in the flour, and continue whisking for about 2 minutes or until the flour butter mixture starts to turn a beige color (a very light colored roux).
  • Continue whisking and slowly add 1 of the cups of milk, incorporating the liquid as you whisk; then add the remaining 1 cup of milk.
  • Let it come to a gentle boil, stirring regularly to keep from burning on the bottom of the pan as it thickens.
  • When it's thick enough to coat a spoon and leave a strip behind where you ran your finger through the coating on the spoon, it's ready to add the drained tuna.
  • Break up the solid tuna chunks with a fork and mix throughout the sauce.
  • Add the salt, pepper, and any seasonings or herbs.
  • Pour the tuna sauce over the noodles and peas, and serve.
