EASY MACARONI TUNA CASSEROLE

This dish is super easy. It is also a very hearty delicious bowl of comfort food. The guys in my house loved it. I loved this recipe but I used cream of mushroom soup and added the cheese into the casserole. I also melted butter and added bread crumbs to the top before baking, then sprinkle top lightly with dill seasoning. The resulting casserole was very creamy and flavorful.

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to boil for the pasta. Salt the water and cook the pasta to less than al dente, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain and drizzle with a touch of oil to keep the pasta loose.
  • In a large bowl, flake the tuna and add the herbs (reserving a tablespoon or 2 for breadcrumbs), onions, mustard, celery, lemon juice, EVOO and some salt and pepper. Add the pasta and combine well. Transfer to a baking dish or large casserole dish.
  • In a medium saucepot, melt 4 tablespoons of butter. Whisk in the flour and cook 1 minute. Then whisk in the milk and season with salt and pepper, thicken to coat the back of a spoon. Stir in the Cheddar in a figure-eight motion. Pour the sauce evenly over the pasta and tuna. Gently combine with a spoon to settle the sauce. Cool and store for a make-ahead meal.
  • Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in a small pan and add the breadcrumbs and reserved herbs, toss to evenly distribute the butter, remove from heat and transfer to airtight container.

  • Boil the pasta in heavily salted water in a 2-quart saucepan according to the package directions.
  • Heat the empty saucepan over low heat. Add the butter and cream cheese and melt for 1 minute, stirring frequently, or until the butter is melted and starting to foam. Note: it's ok if the butter and cream cheese look separated. They will melt together completely in the next step.
  • Add the cheddar cheese, milk, and salt to the pan. Increase the temperature to medium-low and let the mixture come to a simmer, stirring the mixture as it cooks. Simmer the sauce for 5-6 minutes, continuing to stir every 15-30 seconds or so, or until the sauce is thickened and creamy. Note: you want the sauce to simmer lightly, but not boil or burn. If it starts to boil turn the heat back down to low.
