- Yields:
-
1 casserole
ingredients
- 1 lb rotini pasta
- 2 (12 ounce) cans tuna, drained
- 2 (10 3/4 ounce) cans cream of mushroom soup
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1⁄2 cup milk
- 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can peas and carrots, drained (I prefer DelMonte because they are diced)
- 1 (8 ounce) bag shredded cheddar cheese
- mustard, to taste
directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and cook rotini according to package directions while oven is preheating.
- While the rotini is cooking, whisk together the softened cream cheese, cream of mushroom soup, tuna, milk,, and enough mustard to color it slightly. The mustard really adds a great flavor!
- Add the cheddar cheese and peas and carrots, reserving some cheddar for the top if you prefer.
- Mix cream mixture and rotini and place in a 13x9 inches baking dish and cook for 30 minutes.

Yes, excellent casserole. I made it as directed, I did half the recipe and it still made plenty. Even better the next day! I used frozen peas and corn, (oops, just saw the recipe called for carrots! well, I'm afraid I used corn, but it was great ....) and English mustard powder.<br/>Definitely, great comfort food, thanks Auvan!

This was great. Peas AND carrots are a MUST for tuna noodle! I think the cream cheese made it very rich. I did use wide egg noodles, instead of the rotini, didn't use the mustard, and added in a small sauteed onion and clove of garlic.... and it was just like mom's (maybe even a little better- but don't tell) Thanks for sharing.
