SOUTHWEST TUNA MACARONI AND CHEESE CASSEROLE
This is one of my "favorite" tuna casserole recipes! It was Stacky5 at food.com who originally posted the recipe, but I did modify the recipe somewhat. I substituted one can of soup for another, plus I added a bit more of the macaroni. I really liked this dish reheated the next day in the microwave, as it was still nice and...

Steps:
- 1. Grease the inside of one 2-1/2 quart casserole baking dish; set dish aside.
- 2. Cook macaroni according to package directions to "al dente" (9 to 11 minutes). Once cooked, drain and rinse with cold water, then drain again.
- 3. While the macaroni is cooking, in a large bowl combine together, the soup, milk, and mayonnaise. Then stir in the shredded cheese, pepper, and tuna. (If desired, sprinkle in a bit of salt.)
- 4. Stir in the cooked macaroni, then pour the mixture in the casserole baking dish.
- 5. Sprinkle the bread crumbs evenly on top, then pour the melted butter over the bread crumbs.
- 6. Place casserole (uncovered) in a 350 degree oven, and bake for 30-35 minutes. (I baked mine for 35 minutes.)
- 7. Once heated through, remove from the oven and serve immediately.
- 8. *Note: Whenever I make this casserole, I always use Rotini pasta, and use 3 cups, which I cook anywhere from 10-11 minutes. Also, if I don't have a can of Fiesta Nacho Cheese Soup on hand, but have a can of cheddar cheese soup, I'll use that, and I'll only use a half soup can of milk, plus a half soup can of mild salsa. I'll also substitute shredded Mexican cheese for the cheddar.
SOUTHWEST TUNA CASSEROLE
This came from a friend of mine during a recipe exchange. I amended it significantly to make it gluten and dairy free, but I think it still works! It's a super easy dinner recipe for your average night.

Steps:
- Preheat the over to 350 degrees F. Coat a 2-quart casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
- Cook the pasta according to package directions.
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Coat with the canola oil, and when the oil is hot, add the onion and celery. Cook and stir until the vegetables soften, about 3 minutes.
- Stir in corn and cook 2 minutes longer to incorporate.
- Stir in the mayonnaise, salsa and chili powder until well blended. If it seems too thick, thin with a few teaspoons of non-dairy milk (almond milk, rice milk or soy milk) or some gluten-free chicken stock.
- Add the tuna and cooked pasta, stirring just to coat.
- Pour into the prepared casserole dish.
- Sprinkle top evenly with cheese (optional).
- Bake for about 25 minutes or until bubbling. Remove from oven and serve immediately.
