My Swiss Cheese Tuna Casserole image

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...

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pkg button mushrooms, 8 oz
1 onion, diced small
Worcestershire sauce
3 Tbsp butter
4 pkg albacore tuna packed in water (not canned), 2.5 oz each
2 c peas, frozen petite
2 can(s) cream of mushroom soup, 10.5 oz each
milk - enouth to fill 2 cans of the soup
8 slice Swiss cheese
1 can(s) French's french fried onions, 6 oz, enough to cover top of casserole
1 pkg wide egg noodles
your favorite seasonings
3 hard boiled eggs, diced

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!

I love this recipe! It's a great way to use up leftover tuna. I also like to add some chopped broccoli or cauliflower to the casserole for extra nutrition.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my casserole turned out dry and bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what I did wrong.

Easy and delicious! I made this for dinner last night and my family loved it. The leftovers were even better the next day.

This casserole was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning or maybe some vegetables to add some flavor.

I'm not usually a fan of tuna casserole, but this recipe changed my mind. The Swiss cheese and sour cream gave it a creamy, flavorful sauce that was out of this world. I'll be making this again for sure!
