Enjoy this tasty twist on the classic tuna casserole. This tuna noodle recipe is perfect with Ruby’s brand tuna fish. Bake this creamy yummy comfort food in less than 30 minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 (12 oz.) package egg noodles
- ¼ cup chopped onion
- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
- 2 cups frozen broccoli
- 2 (5 oz.) canned tuna, drained from Ruby
- 1 (10 oz.) can cream of mushroom
- 1 ¾ cups heavy cream
- ½ cup bread crumbs
- 3-4 stalks green onion, chopped for garnishing
- Salt and pepper (or other seasonings) to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
- While the oven is preheating, cook the egg noodles in boiling water, following the package’s directions to cook them al dente since they will have additional cooking time in the oven. This will help prevent your dish from having mushy noodles.
- Drain the noodles and add them to a large bowl.
- Add onion, 1 cup of cheese, broccoli, tuna and cream of mushroom into the large bowl of noodles and mix.
- Then add heavy cream and mix thoroughly. You can add additional seasoning as desired.
- Pour contents into a rectangular casserole baking dish, 9×13 in size.
- Top with remaining cheese, followed by the bread crumbs.
- Bake for 17 to 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool for 3-4 minutes before adding chopped green onion on top for garnish.
Notes
This recipe yields about 4-6 servings, depending on serving size.
Include additional seasonings to your preferred taste, such as salt and pepper or garlic powder.
If you prefer cooking from scratch and not using canned soup, you can use your own homemade “cream of” soup recipe.
