Tuna Casserole

"This is the tuna casserole my family eats. I read through a bunch of similar tuna casserole recipes, but none were exactly like this. This one does not use cheese. I highly recommend using Ruffles potato chips for the top, they are the best. (Cooking time for the noodles is not specifically included in prep or cook time, although they could easily be finished during the 10 minute prep time)"

directions

  • Cook egg noodles until done, but still firm, not mushy.
  • Put diced celery and onion in a microwavable bowl, and microwave on high for 1-1/12 minutes until hot, and slightly cooked, but still crunchy. (If you skip this step, the onions and celery may still be raw in the finished product).
  • In a large bowl, combine Cream of Mushroom soup, milk and mayo. Then add the tuna, and partially cooked celery and onions. Season with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
  • Add cooked noodles to bowl, stir to coat the noodles with the soup mixture.
  • Pour into casserole dish, and spread crushed chips over the top.
  • Bake in 375F oven for 20-30 minutes, until hot and the chips on top are golden brown.

Great picture, eh? Hawaii is beautiful. I sure wish I lived there :) Instead, I live in Northern California. It's beautiful here too - but it's no Hawaii! About me: I'm not yet 30, got married in October 2008, bought our first house in March 2009, and am pregnant with our first baby (a little girl!) due January 2010. The kitchen in our new home leaves something to be desired... having a very small wall oven that doesn't fit the baking sheets I have become accustomed to! But, it works. Someday we'll have the money to remodel :) I've been to culinary school (stopping just before I got my certificate because I got accepted into a 4-year college and wanted to get a bachelors degree.) So, I've made lots of things, from Sweetbreads and Lobster, to Souffles and Chocolate Mousse. Although I was also trained in cooking "real" food, my love is for baking, pastries, and desserts. My major problem is that I feel the need to follow a recipe all the time. Unless it's something that I've made forever, and feel comfortable with - I much prefer having the recipe in front of me. (I've played many instruments as well - and I was the same way about needing music in front of me, and being unable to improvise.) I came to recipezaar to find easy recipes that I can make my own. Being the primary cook in the house, I enjoy cooking each day, but hate doing the meal planning portion. I want to find some dishes that I can turn into regulars in my home, so I'm here mostly to look for inspiration. (Although I also look around for special occasion food ideas too!)
