TUNA CASSEROLE WITH BOW TIES, MUSHROOMS AND PARMESAN



Tuna Casserole With Bow Ties, Mushrooms and Parmesan image

This is a great from scratch Tuna Casserole. No canned soup here, an easy Parmesan cream sauce with just a touch of cayenne to give it a nice kick. Red bell peppers, green onions and mushrooms give it the right flavor and colors to pull an ordinary tuna casserole to over the top. This recipe comes from Art Smith's cookbook "Kitchen Life" which I am enjoying very much! When I make this again, I will probably substitute Ritz cracker crumbs for the dried bread crumbs to add a little more pizzaz to the top.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. This is especially true for the Parmesan cheese and the herbs.
  • Don't overcook the pasta: Bow-tie pasta is a delicate pasta, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook the pasta according to the package directions, or until it is al dente (firm to the bite).
  • Use a good quality Parmesan cheese: The Parmesan cheese is the star of this dish, so it's important to use a good quality cheese. Look for a Parmesan cheese that is aged for at least 12 months.
  • Add the Parmesan cheese at the end: Adding the Parmesan cheese at the end of the cooking process will help to prevent it from becoming grainy.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, parsley, or thyme, will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.
