MOM'S EASY TUNA CASSEROLE WITH RICE



Mom's Easy Tuna Casserole with Rice image

Categories     Tuna Casserole

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ⅓ cups uncooked instant rice
1 pinch dried oregano, or more to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 (5 ounce) can tuna, drained and flaked
1 medium onion, diced
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chile peppers, undrained
¾ cup water, or as needed
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 ⅔ cups milk
3 drops hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®), or more to taste
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 pinch ground paprika, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Spread rice in the bottom of a 2-quart casserole dish. Sprinkle with oregano, salt, and pepper. Layer tuna over top, then diced onion.

Time 1h

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small yellow onion, diced
6 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons all purpose flour
2 teaspoons italian seasoning
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup whole milk
2 cups peas, canned, drained
1 cup carrot, drained
4 cans tuna, packed in water, drained
12 oz egg noodles, cooked according to package instructions and drained
3 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
1 cup butter crackers, crumbled
¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon olive oil

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9 x 13-inch (22 x 33cm) baking dish with nonstick spray.
