This came from a friend of mine during a recipe exchange. I amended it significantly to make it gluten and dairy free, but I think it still works! It's a super easy dinner recipe for your average night.

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon canola oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 cup celery, chopped
1 1/2 cups corn kernels
1 1/4 cups mayonnaise
1 cup salsa
1 teaspoon chili powder (optional)
6 ounces tuna in water
2 1/2 cups gluten-free pasta (rotini, penne or fusilli)
1 cup goat cheese, shredded (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the over to 350 degrees F. Coat a 2-quart casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
  • Cook the pasta according to package directions.
  • Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Coat with the canola oil, and when the oil is hot, add the onion and celery. Cook and stir until the vegetables soften, about 3 minutes.
  • Stir in corn and cook 2 minutes longer to incorporate.
  • Stir in the mayonnaise, salsa and chili powder until well blended. If it seems too thick, thin with a few teaspoons of non-dairy milk (almond milk, rice milk or soy milk) or some gluten-free chicken stock.
  • Add the tuna and cooked pasta, stirring just to coat.
  • Pour into the prepared casserole dish.
  • Sprinkle top evenly with cheese (optional).
  • Bake for about 25 minutes or until bubbling. Remove from oven and serve immediately.

I'm not a fan of cornbread, so I topped the casserole with crushed crackers instead. It was delicious!

The tuna casserole was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

I'm not a big fan of tuna casserole, but this recipe changed my mind. It was creamy and flavorful, and the cornbread topping was the perfect touch.
