Tuna casserole tastes light, but it is delicious and filling. The texture is amazing with soft, tender egg noodles and firm, flakey, canned tuna. Tuna casserole paired with a delicious, fresh, garden, spring salad makes for a delicious meal.
While certain foods are served at certain times of the year, including maple glazed ham on Easter Sunday, baby back ribs on the 4th of July, and oven roasted turkey on Thanksgiving, tuna casserole is the kind of dish that is enjoyed all year round even on certain holidays.
Truth be told, I can eat tuna casserole every day of the week and never tire to it. It’s just that good and doesn’t take much time to prepare.
This delicious stove top recipe is quick and easy to make, but it tastes like it took hours in the kitchen.
