Tuna Pasta Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Cook and drain pasta as directed on package.
• Meanwhile, in 1 1/2-quart saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Stir in flour and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until smooth and bubbly; remove from heat. Gradually stir in milk. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute. Stir in cheese until melted.
• Stir in pasta, broccoli and tuna; mix well. Spoon into ungreased 2-quart casserole. Cover and bake about 25 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
• Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix topping ingredients. Sprinkle topping over casserole. Bake uncovered about 5 minutes longer or until topping is toasted.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook according to the package directions. Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water, then drain the noodles and return to the pot.
• Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallion whites and sliced celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the evaporated milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Stir in the peas and carrots and the mustard. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Pour the sauce over the noodles; stir in the sour cream, 1/2 cup of the cheese, the tuna and reserved cooking water. Transfer to a 1 1/2-quart baking dish.
• Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Toss with the panko, scallion greens, celery leaves and remaining 1/4 cup cheese; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle over the casserole. Bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a 9x13-inch baking dish, combine the macaroni, tuna, and soup. Mix well, and then top with cheese.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 25 minutes, or until bubbly. Sprinkle with fried onions, and bake for another 5 minutes. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
• Cook pasta until al dente.
• Combine tuna, sour cream, soup, veggies, and garlic in a pot and warm on stove top over low heat.
• Combine tuna mixture with cooked, drained pasta and pour into a greased 9x12 pan.
• Top with cheese and crackers and bake for 25 minutes.
• Mmmm, good.

Steps:

• Place the spinach on a plate and microwave it for 6 minutes on high to defrost it. Place it in a clean kitchen towel and wring it dry, then reserve.
• While the spinach is defrosting, get a large pot of water on the stove for the pasta. Bring to a boil, then salt the water liberally and cook the shells to al dente.
• While the pasta works, heat a deep, large skillet over medium heat. Add the EVOO, then melt the butter into the oil. When the butter melts, add the onions and garlic and cook until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle the flour around the pan and cook for a minute, then whisk in the wine-it will cook off and the mixture will thicken almost immediately. Whisk in the stock, then whisk in the milk and bring it to a bubble. Reduce the heat a bit. Season the sauce with the nutmeg, hot sauce, and mustard, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes to thicken, then add the spinach, separating it as you add it to the sauce.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Back to the sauce: add the tuna, flaking it as you go, then stir to combine. Heat the spinach and tuna through for a minute or so. Drain the pasta and toss with the sauce. Transfer the tuna to a casserole dish and cover it with the Parm or Romano. Place the casserole under the broiler for 2 minutes to brown the edges and the cheese. Top with the parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta 2 minutes less than package instructions (it will be undercooked). Drain. In a small bowl, toss together panko, Parmesan, and 2 teaspoons oil.
• In pot, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high. Add onion, season with salt and pepper, and cook until softened, 8 minutes. Add flour and whisk to coat onion with flour. Slowly whisk in broth, then milk.
• Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce comes to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring frequently, until sauce is thickened, about 8 minutes. Stir in pasta, tuna, and peas and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Transfer tuna mixture to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and top with panko mixture. Bake until sauce is bubbling and crust is golden, 17 to 20 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Cook macaroni according to package directions; drain.
• In saucepan, melt 6 tb butter or margarine over low heat.
• Blend in flour and 3/4 ts salt.

• Sprinkle on top of casserole.
