TUNA NOODLE CASSEROLE (DAIRY- AND SOY-FREE)



Tuna Noodle Casserole (Dairy- and Soy-Free) image

We hadn't had tuna noodle casserole in over a year because of my son's allergies. I researched dairy-free cream of mushroom soup recipes and found recipe # 107359. The recipe below includes a variation on that recipe. My version does include soybean oil which is safe for many with soy allergies, but the shortening could be replaced with olive or corn oil.

Time 1h

Yield 4 , 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup mushroom, diced (not canned)
1/4 cup yellow onion, minced
1 serrano pepper, finely minced
3 tablespoons shortening
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon white pepper
1 1/4 cups rice milk
8 ounces egg noodles
12 ounces canned tuna
1/2 cup diced onion
1/2 cup rice milk
1 cup frozen peas

Steps:

  • Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Rinse with cool water and put aside.
  • Heat the olive oil and saute the mushrooms, minced onions, and serrano pepper for about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from pan.
  • Melt the shortening. Add the flour, corn starch and pepper, whisking to get out any lumps. After a minute or two, add the rice milk. Continue to whisk until it begins to thicken (which will happen quickly). Put the sauteed vegetables back in the pan and heat for a minute or two. Add more rice milk if it gets too thick. Remove from heat.
  • Preheat oven to 375. In a deep casserole dish, combine the soup, rice milk and onion. Next add the tuna and peas. Finally, add the noodles, carefully folding them into the rest of the mixture.
  • Cook covered for 30 minutes and uncovered for no more than 10.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor, texture, and nutrients to your casserole.
  • Don't overcook the noodles. They should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite.
  • Use a good quality tuna. Canned tuna in water is a good option, but you can also use fresh or frozen tuna that has been cooked and flaked.
  • Make sure the sauce is creamy and flavorful. You can use a variety of ingredients to make the sauce, such as cream of celery soup, milk, and cheese.
  • Top the casserole with a crunchy topping. This could be something like bread crumbs, crushed crackers, or grated Parmesan cheese.

Conclusion:

Dairy-free tuna noodle casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. It is also a great way to use up leftover tuna. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and satisfying casserole that the whole family will enjoy.
