Made this for my boyfriend tonight and he said it was the best tuna noodle casserole ever. He loved how creativity was. Here is what I did different. I boiled around three peeled and sliced on the diagonal in water until done, then drained and ran cold water over them to stop cooking process. I sauteed the onion and celery in olive oil and melted butter until soft, then added around one cup frozen peas. Cooked until thawed. In same skillet add soup, milk and cheese, stir until melted and smooth. I used sour cream instead of mayo, add to sauce. Mix items together and place into casserole dish. I then grated a little parmesan on top.

Very good. An old recipe that I'd forgotten. Very amenable to "on-hand" cooking. Had to use American cheese - added a little lemon juice and used McCormick Salad Seasoning, chopped water-chestnuts instead of celery, used whole milk (added extra for extra can of tuna, etc), sauteed onions in a bit of olive oil. Mixed thawed, drained peas with slightly under-cooked and rinsed noodles and seasoned. Mixed rest of casserole and seasoned to taste and balanced with lemon. Combined them and put into 2 prepared covered casserole dishes. Cooked till bubbly and topped with canned fried onions, Baked uncovered till onions were browned. Cool 5 min. Easy.

This recipe has made me famous among my friends. I use a can of peas instead of veg-all and I reduce the amount of noodles, but it's delicious! Be careful about the cheddar you use. Try to use a less oily cheese - my boyfriend took over cooking duties and used Cracker Barrel cheese and we, um, didn't feel so well later on! I also sprinkle lightly with breadcrumbs as suggested. Thanks so much for this recipe!

Absolutely incredible! My husband requested tuna casserole and my first thought was "yuck". I have to say that I'm really pleasantly surprised with the outcome of this dish. My only changes were that I used frozen mixed vegetables instead of canned, I sauteed the celery and onion in olive oil, and I added mushrooms and French's french fried onions. Really good! Thanks!
