CHEESY TUNA NOODLE SKILLET



Cheesy Tuna Noodle Skillet image

Make and share this Cheesy Tuna Noodle Skillet recipe from Food.com.

Provided by Michelle_My_Belle

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups water
3 cups pasta (Bite sized, rotini or cavatappi, uncooked)
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can condensed cream of celery soup
2 (6 ounce) cans tuna (drained, broken into chunks)
3 cups frozen peas and carrots
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1/4 teaspoon dill weed
1 cup monterey jack and cheddar cheese blend (Shredded)

Steps:

  • BRING water to boil in large deep skillet or saucepan on high heat.
  • Stir in pasta.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low; cover.
  • Simmer 9 minute or just until pasta is tender and liquid is almost completely absorbed. (Do not drain.)
  • ADD soup, tuna, vegetables, thyme and dill; stir.
  • Bring to boil.
  • Reduce heat to low; simmer, uncovered, 3 to 5 minute or until thickened and heated through.
  • STIR in cheese.
  • Jazz It Up: Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley just before serving.
  • Variation: Substitute frozen chopped broccoli for the peas and carrots. Or substitute 3/4 cup (4 oz.) OSCAR MAYER Ham, chopped, or 2 cups chopped leftover cooked chicken for the tuna. You can also use any flavor of condensed cream soup you have on hand.

Tips:

  • Choose the right tuna: Opt for tuna packed in water, as it's healthier and contains fewer calories than tuna packed in oil.
  • Use fresh broccoli: Fresh broccoli florets provide a crisp texture and vibrant flavor to the casserole.
  • Don't overcook the broccoli: Broccoli should be cooked until tender-crisp, not mushy. Overcooked broccoli will lose its nutrients and flavor.
  • Use a good quality cheese: A flavorful cheese, such as cheddar or Parmesan, will enhance the taste of the casserole.
  • Don't skimp on the seasonings: Oregano, garlic powder, and salt and pepper add depth of flavor to the casserole.
  • Serve immediately: The casserole is best served hot, straight out of the oven.

Conclusion:

If you're looking for a quick, easy, and delicious weeknight meal, this cheesy tuna broccoli skillet casserole is a great choice. It's packed with protein, vegetables, and cheese, and it's sure to please the whole family. So next time you're short on time, give this recipe a try – you won't be disappointed!
