TUNA TORTELLINI CASSEROLE



Tuna Tortellini Casserole image

I stole this idea from one of those dinner assembly place menus. The addition of tortellini as the "noodles" in tuna noodle casserole almost makes it decadent. It is still just a basic tuna noodle casserole recipe - not really meant to be real spicy or or exciting :-) Just comfort food . . .

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Tortellini: Opt for fresh or refrigerated tortellini, as they cook evenly and maintain their shape better than dried tortellini.
  • Enhance the Flavor: Use a flavorful broth as the base of your soup, such as chicken or vegetable broth. You can also add herbs, spices, or a splash of white wine for extra flavor.
  • Don't Overcook the Tortellini: Tortellini cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become mushy and lose its delicate texture.
  • Add Vegetables: Incorporate a variety of vegetables into your soup, such as carrots, celery, onions, and peas. This will add color, texture, and nutritional value to the dish.
  • Use Canned or Fresh Tuna: You can use either canned or fresh tuna in your soup. If using canned tuna, drain it well and flake it before adding it to the soup. If using fresh tuna, cook it thoroughly before adding it.
  • Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Before serving, garnish your soup with fresh herbs like parsley, basil, or chives. This will add a pop of color and freshness to the dish.

Tuna tortellini soup is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed all year round.
