Categories     Healthy Fish & Seafood Casserole Recipes

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 18

6 ounces egg noodles, preferably whole-wheat (4 1/2 cups dry)
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 cup finely chopped onion
½ cup finely chopped celery
10 ounces mushrooms, sliced
3 tablespoons dry sherry
2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon ground pepper
¼ cup white whole-wheat flour or all-purpose flour
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth, divided
1 cup reduced-fat milk
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 5-ounce cans chunk light tuna in olive oil (see Tips), drained and flaked
10 cups baby spinach or 4 cups frozen chopped spinach (thawed)
1 cup coarse fresh breadcrumbs (see Tips), preferably whole-wheat
¾ cup grated aged Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch pan (or similar-size 3-quart baking dish) with cooking spray.

MODERN TUNA CASSEROLE



Modern Tuna Casserole image

I loved tuna casserole as a kid and found myself craving it as an adult. However, the massive amounts of fat and salt in the traditional recipe were a turnoff healthwise, and it just didn't taste as good as I remembered. I reconfigured the recipe to include more vegetables and the result was delicious. -Rebecca Blanton, St. Helena, California
