SUPER EASY! Or should I say…supper easy 🙂
I added a second can of tuna, used a box of veggie pasta, and lactose free milk with a can of cream of mushroom soup. I also added some seasoning and then topped with crushed whole grain Club crackers.
Turned out fabulous and was extremely easy to throw together and tailor to many different dietary needs. Thanks!
The basic recipe for this dish is fabulous and consistent. Luv, gooey, creamy, starchy food that u can make in one pot with no precooking. So far have used every kind of pasta/noodle imaginable(spaetzle was really different). Have used tuna, chicken, sausage and varying kinds of veggies from the peas mentioned to peas/carrots, corn, mixed veggies, soup/stew vegetable. all veggies require different cooking times, so make note. i find i must thin the casserole down a bit when done(chicken broth) and I have also thinned it down with enough milk to make a pasta chowder. just great. topped it with… Read more »
I made the mistake of using egg noodles. The flavor was really good, but the consistency was thick goo. Couldn’t tell there was any pasta in it at all. Next time, I will use elbow macaroni or something.
Added some white wine and mushrooms to the soup and milk mixture. Looks yummy.
I used egg noodles and it came out a big pile of goo.
Would recommend using a heartier noodle.
I had craved tuna casserole and although the flavor was good I was disappointed in the end result when the recipe needed an asterisk recommending not using egg noodles.
Pamela you can use the egg noodles, but I would add them the last half hour of the crocking time, and it should turn out for you. The flavor is excellent in the recipe. Tuna casserole has always been a hit with me. Happy Crocking and Happy Holidays!
Pamela, I have added a comment to this recipe! Thank you for your feedback, appreciate it very much! Happy Crocking!
I just made this today and used elbow macaroni. Unfortunately it was mushy. Cook too long or not enough milk? It tasted wonderful though.
Regarding the 2 cups milk-is that in addition to the milk that needs to be added to the canned cream of mushroom?
can you use egg noodles?
I attempted this tonight and wanted to warn anyone for the future, do not attempt this recipe with Banza chickpea pasta. I needed to make it gluten free and didn’t account for how the noodles would cook.
