This is my grandma's recipe. My dad calls it "Toucan Tuna Casserole" because it uses two cans of everything. It is uncommon among tuna casserole recipes because it uses potato chips instead of noodles. Serve with Worcestershire sauce.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (6 ounce) can tuna in water
1 (14 ounce) can kernel corn, drained
1 can mushroom soup, undiluted
plain potato chips

Steps:

  • Mix together the first 3 ingredients.
  • In a greased casserole dish, layer plain potato chips on the bottom.
  • Cover with the tuna mixture.
  • Top with more chips.
  • Bake at 350 degrees until hot and bubbly.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Tuna: Opt for high-quality tuna packed in water or olive oil for a healthier option.
  • Drain the Tuna Thoroughly: Ensure the tuna is well-drained to prevent excess liquid in the casserole.
  • Use Fresh Vegetables: For the best flavor and texture, use fresh vegetables like celery, onion, and bell pepper.
  • Don't Overcook the Eggs: Hard-boiled eggs can easily become rubbery, so cook them just until they are set.
  • Layer the Casserole Properly: Start with a layer of tuna, then vegetables, eggs, and finally, the potato chips.
  • Use the Right Pan: Choose a casserole dish that is large enough to accommodate all the ingredients comfortably.
  • Don't Overbake: The casserole is ready when the cheese is melted and bubbly and the potato chips are golden brown. Overbaking can result in a dry and overcooked dish.

My Mom's Tuna Casserole with Potato Chips and Eggs is a nostalgic and delicious dish that combines simple ingredients to create a hearty and comforting meal.
