Time 40m

Yield 12 cups, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

12 ounces elbow macaroni (or pasta of your choice, I use Barilla Extra or Ronzoni SmartTaste)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 -3 stalks celery, chopped
3 tablespoons flour (I use Wondra, it helps!)
2 -3 cups milk
2 teaspoons cumin
2 teaspoons celery seeds
1 tablespoon mustard (deli style, brown, or seeded, I don't think plain yellow or Dijon would be good.)
salt
pepper
14 ounces tuna, drained
1 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese
1 cup frozen baby peas
1 cup dry breadcrumbs

Steps:

Prepare pasta according to package directions. Cook firm, not soft. Drain and set aside.
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in saucepan over medium heat. Add onions and celery and saute until translucent, about 8 minutes.
Sprinkle flour over sauteed vegetables. Stir well, Cook, stirring frequently, over medium-low heat for two minutes, until flour looses "powdery" taste. Do not brown.
Slowly, a 1/4 cup or so at a time, add milk, stirring well after each addition. Add cumin, celery seed, mustard, salt and pepper (there--you've made cream of onion/celery soup).
Add peas. Cook until peas and soup are heated through.
Remove from heat, add tuna and 1 cup of the cheese.
If your pot is big enough, add the noodles. Otherwise, transfer soup and noodles to a large bowl and mix well.
Transfer all to greased 10 x 14" casserole dish.
Cover with foil and bake at 325 for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine bread crumbs with remaining 1/2 cup cheddar cheese.
Romove casserole from oven. Uncover and top casserole with bread crumb/cheese mixture.

Tips:

When choosing tuna for your casserole, it is best to use chunk light tuna in oil. This will help to keep the casserole moist and flavorful.
If you are using frozen peas, be sure to thaw them before adding them to the casserole. This will help to prevent the casserole from becoming watery.
To make your casserole even creamier, you can add a can of cream of celery soup or cream of mushroom soup.
If you are using a breadcrumb topping, be sure to use fresh breadcrumbs. This will help to give the casserole a crispy, golden brown crust.
If you are short on time, you can use a pre-made sauce instead of making your own. Just be sure to choose a sauce that you like the taste of.

Conclusion:

Tuna casserole is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a hearty dish to serve at a potluck, tuna casserole is a great option. With its creamy sauce, flaky tuna, and crispy breadcrumb topping, tuna casserole is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
