Easy Tuna Casserole



I haven't been posting many recipes recently because we haven't been on much of a regular eating routine here lately with all the sickness and a lot of other things going on. We've had a lot of boxed mac and cheese and hot dog type meals lately. So I was very excited tonight to make something new - Easy Tuna Casserole, a great recipe I found on AllRecipes. I added an extra cup of pasta, because 3 just didn't look like enough, but we had tons leftover so I probably would stick to 3 cups next time. I also threw in half of a bag of frozen peas.

INGREDIENTS:

* 3 cups cooked macaroni
* 1 (6 ounce) can tuna, drained
* 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
* 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
* 1 1/2 cups French fried onions

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
2. In a 9x13-inch baking dish, combine the macaroni, tuna, and soup. Mix well, and then top with cheese.
3. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 25 minutes, or until bubbly. Sprinkle with fried onions, and bake for another 5 minutes. Serve hot.

So like I predicted the kids gave me a hard time BUT ate all of theirs and I loved it. Paul ate without complaints and since he grabbed the leftovers for work the next day I will make the assumption he liked it. :) I used green beans and bread crumbs instead of peas and fried onions since that's what I had in the apt. Bueno! A nice change from chicken or ground beef!
