MY SWISS CHEESE TUNA CASSEROLE
Wow, this is not your ordinary tuna casserole recipe. The traditional casserole is brought to a whole new level in this recipe (almost a little fancy). From the albacore tuna to the Swiss cheese, the flavor is a bit richer in this casserole. We loved the texture from big chunks of mushrooms. Sweet peas balance out the savoriness...

Steps:
- 1. Slice the mushrooms and dice the onions. Sauté in butter over medium heat.
- 2. Add Worcestershire sauce. I use quite a bit.
- 3. Sauté stirring frequently until done.
- 4. While the mushrooms and onions are cooking, boil the eggs and prepare the noodles as directed. Cook only to al dente firmness so they don't become mushy in the oven.
- 5. When mushrooms and onions are done, add tuna and favorite seasonings. Cook on low for a couple of minutes stirring frequently. In the same pan that you sauteed the mushrooms and onions in, add the soup and milk. Stir over low heat until smooth.
- 6. Drain noodles and return to pot. Add tuna mixture and coat the noodles well. Put eggs into an egg slicer. Cut lengthwise. Then turn again and cut. Add to noodles.
- 7. After the eggs are stirred in, add peas. Now is a good time to add more seasoning. Stir to blend ingredients.
- 8. Transfer mixture to a 9x13 baking dish.
- 9. Top with Swiss cheese slices.
- 10. Tightly cover with foil and bake at 350 for 30 to 45 minutes, or until bubbly and cheese is melted.
- 11. Remove foil and cover with French fried onions. Return to oven for a few minutes until the onions are browned (about 10 minutes).
- 12. Make sure you let it cool for a while. It will be lava hot!! I used to make this with Colby jack cheese and it's really good that way too!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat Oven to 350 degrees. Boil noodles in medium pot for 12 mins.(or until tender but not overcooked)
- 2. Dice and chop onion and celery and saute in skillet with Pam or a few drops of oil and a few drops of water. Until translucent.(3-4) mins.
- 3. Then remove tuna from cans(strain off liquid first)and add to celery and onions in skillet. Add cream of celery soup and milk. Stir on low heat.

Tips:
- Use a quality tuna. Fresh or canned tuna can be used in this casserole, but be sure to choose a variety that is packed in water, not oil.
- Don't overcook the tuna. Tuna is a delicate fish that can easily become dry and tough if it is overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque in the center, about 5 minutes per inch of thickness.
- Use a variety of vegetables. This recipe calls for peas, carrots, and celery, but you can use any vegetables that you like. Some other good options include broccoli, cauliflower, and green beans.
- Use a flavorful cheese. Swiss cheese is a classic choice for tuna casserole, but you can use any type of cheese that you like. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan are all good options.
- Don't be afraid to experiment. This recipe is a great starting point, but you can feel free to add or omit ingredients to suit your own taste. Some good additions include diced tomatoes, chopped nuts, or a sprinkle of paprika.
Conclusion:
Swiss cheese tuna casserole is a classic dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. It is a great way to use up leftover tuna, and it is also a budget-friendly meal. This casserole is also a good source of protein, calcium, and vegetables. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give Swiss cheese tuna casserole a try.
