Cheesy Tuna Noodle Casserole image

This was a favorite in my home growing up and now it's a favorite of my family as well. I double the recipe these days for my husband and three children. For a change of pace I add canned chopped green chilies and 1/8 teaspoon cayenne, use pasta shells or spirals, or top the casserole with sliced American or cheddar cheese instead of breadcrumbs.

I made this casserole with whole wheat noodles and it turned out great! It's a healthier version of a classic dish.

I'm not a big fan of tuna, but I really enjoyed this casserole. The cheese and noodles really balance out the flavor of the tuna.
