Easy Tuna Casserole
Easy Tuna Casserole
This is THE EASIEST meal you can make for your family. My children love it. They get seconds and thirds. Throw it on a plate with some green peas and a garden salad, and you have a healthy, home cooked meal that takes you as long as it takes the macaroni to boil.
1 pound elbow macaroni
1 can tuna in oil
2 cups Can-Do “No Cans” Cream of Mushroom Soup or 1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/4 cup diced onion
1/4 cup diced green pepper
2 TBS extra virgin olive oil
2 tsp Kosher or sea salt
deep frying pan
large saucepan
collander
wooden spoon
sharp knife and cutting board
Cook macaroni according to package directions. Put about 1 TBS olive oil and 2 tsp salt in the water before adding the macaroni.
While the macaroni is cooking, in the frying pan, heat over medium-to-medium-high heat 1 TBS olive oil. Add the onion and green pepper.
Cook, stirring, until the onion is clear and soft. Add the tuna (do not drain).
Stir in the soup.
Add the cooked macaroni.
Stir until combined.

You can use any kind of pasta — medium shells are nice – they capture the sauce nicely. I’ve used tri-colored rotini. Any small, bite-sized pasta.

After talking to you this morning, i’m excited to be trying this tonight! Since this is a last minute Dinner Idea (because yours looked so yummy)….. I’m having to make the following “adjustments”
Tuna w/oil: Sub~Tuna w/water, drained and add olive oil to pan instead)
Green Pepper: Sub~ Celery cut up like the green peppers would be…
Fresh Onion: Sub~ Ground Onion Spice (My family will NOT eat onions in any form, cooked or raw! thats just the way they roll LOL)
I have so much confidence in this recipe of yours Hallee that i’m doubling it for Aaron’s dinner tonight at work and lunches this week! YUMMMM cant wait! ;)
