Tuna Casserole! (chicken, celery soup, carrot, sesame)

[Bulldogdad]

Are you hot tuna haters.....er wait while I ponder that..........

Ok are you using solid albacore or the other crappy chunked stuff.

LOL I changed to solid albacore 7 years ago and havent looked back. I regularly get the 7oz cans at Costco for 1.25 on sale. As matter of fact Costco is having a sale on them right now. Because it is solid when you flake it up it doubles in volumne. I absolutely hate the regular chunked crap now smells like cat food.

Ok back to your regular programming.

I will have to try that one. Thanks for posting.

1 cuup shredded cheddar - I used reduced fat
1 cup frozen peas thawed
1 can chopped tomatoes drained
1/2 tsp kosher salt

Pre-heat oven to 375. In a large bowl blend Hellman's mayonnise, milk and garlic powder. Stir in hot macaroni, tuna, peas and 1/2 cup of chesse. Spoon into an11X7 inch baking dish, top with remaining 1/2 cup of cheese and tomatoes . Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 mintes or until heated through and cheese is melted. last 10 minutes uncover and let cheese get golden brown.
I am making this for dinner tonight. My husband loves it. I have never had it so tonight will be a first for me. I love tuna fish just never had it hot in a casserole.

All of above except: hold the tomatoes...and use a really good Tuna like; Albacore chunk and 2 cans...(since them have reduced the size from 6+ oz to 5oz?).

Oh, I like a few chopped green bell pepper w/ mine...(mother used to make it that way).

Oh, and also I like it without the cheese and no noodles just creamed on biscuits or toast...?

HW works for me.

I use 2 cans as well. I almost think they used to be 7 oz, but I am not sure.

I always use solid albacore, either bummble bee or starkist brand.

ok guys, I know there are a million ways to make Tuna Cassarole so I would like to ask some of you: how do you make it? Do you use frozen peas or not and do you cook the noodles first? I am making it for my daughter this coming week and just thought I would check and see if everyone makes it the way I do or if there are various ways?
