From Scratch Tuna Noodle Casserole image

I searched but didn't see another recipe exactly like this one posted, so I hope I'm not posting a repeat! You'll never go back to canned soup tuna noodle casserole after trying this, at least I certainly haven't. This is from Better Homes and Gardens.

Not a fan. The casserole was bland and mushy.

This was okay. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a different type of cheese. The cheddar was a bit too sharp for my taste.

My tuna helper go-to recipe has been replaced! This casserole was so creamy and cheesy. Next time, I'm going to experiment with adding some chopped celery and onions.

I made this last night and it was a total hit! Everyone loved it, even my husband who isn't a big fan of tuna. Definitely a keeper recipe.
