Tuna Casserole does not get any easier than this. I was having a craving for it tonight and this seemed easy enough. The only thing I did different was while my noodles were cooking I added the chopped onion to a frying pan for a little while just so it wouldn't be quite so strong. I even used the 98% Fat Free Cream of Mushroom soup and half of the amount of cheese. Still YUMMY!

This is quick and easy! I used leftover flaked grilled tuna, an 8-oz. package of egg noodles, a (10-oz.)package of frozen peas and an 8-ounce pkg. of shredded Cheddar cheese instead of the cheese slices. This is a "hearty" casserole

This recipe was all that was promised! I made a few minor alterations to this recipe based on ingredients I had on hand and turned it into more of a casserole. I added 1/2 can of milk to thin it out a bit, and I used shredded colby jack cheese instead of the american cheese because it was all I had. After it was all mixed together I placed it in a casserole dish, sprinkled fried onion rings on top and baked it at 375 degrees for about 8 minutes...just long enough for it to heat up and the cheese to melt. The only reason I finished this recipe in the oven was because I didn't like how my pot was cooking it on the stove. I'm sure when I get a new pot, it will cook up just fine on the stove top! All-in-all a super easy tuna dish that just became a family favorite! I will never use that salty tuna helper boxed stuff again!! Thank you!!!

This is so quick and simple, not to mention delicious! I add a little bit of cheddar cheese to mine, but it was wonderful without it! Thanks for a great recipe for my family of 5!

My husband had two helpings and said to give it five stars! Used half the pkg of pasta and while the pasta was cooking, I sauteed chopped onions, broccoli, canned mushrooms and diced ham in olive oil with a little pepper and garlic salt in a pan. Then stirred in one can tuna (didn't drain), one can cream of mushroom soup and three handfuls grated cheese. I also added frozen peas and carrots mix at this point. After the cheese melted, I added all this to the drained noodles sitting in the pot and kept cooking until the peas and carrots were heated through. Simple and easy dish to make! Had a can of sliced olives I was going to add to it but forgot -- next time!

Bacon and the Holy Trinity were my additions to the great simple meal. My hubby is not a huge fan of tuna, so I jazz it up a bit to make him happy. Four slices of smoked slab bacon crumbled in and added with the all white tuna (less fishy he says). I drained but didn't clean the skillet after the bacon, then added the butter and sauteed the Holy Trinity (onions plus carrots & celery diced small), before adding the soups (plus a half can of milk). A dash of celery salt and some sweet basil added nice complexity to the creaminess, and voila, even He loved it! ;) ps forgot to add that I left the cheese out of the sauce and just layed it over half the topping - he's weird in that he's not big into cheese, so this way I got it, but he didn't have to.

It really is quick and easy, but I added about a cup of milk and it was much better. Without the milk it was a little too "stuck together". Tasty!

You will never use Tuna Helper again after trying this recipe! I thought it was actually easier than Tuna Helper and the end result was fantastic. I used less peas (personal preference) and I sauteed the onion first so it wouldn't be crunchy. I also topped it with cheese and seasoned bread crumbs and put it under the broiler till it was nice and bubbly. I needed something in a pinch, being short on time, and ingredients since I didn't get to the grocery store today. This recipe saved the day! Thanks Jennie!

I love this recipe, it's wonderfully versatile, quick, tasty, and satisfying! I make it for myself using a can of cream of broccoli or broccoli and cheese soup with broccoli florets and peas. Mmm, whatever your taste is I'm sure you could alter this to suit yours.

Awesome, we'll never buy tuna helper again!! :) I adjusted the recipe as follows to make less and account for our tastes: 1/2 package noodles, 1/2 can peas, 1 can cream of cheddar soup, 1 can tuna, 1/2 onion chopped and sauteed in olive oil first, 5 slices american cheese. I also heated the soup, cheese, and tuna in the microwave before I added it to the cooked noodles in order to have it mix well, which it did fantastically! This made plenty for four. You could use any cream soup,and brocolli would be a really good vegetable too. Even my 2 year old ate this! Be sure to sautee the onions before adding them if you don't want them crunchy!

Nice, quick recipe that doesn't taste like it just took a few minutes to throw together. Like other reviewers suggested, next time I will heat the tuna/soup/cheese mixture together so it blends better. Great recipe!

We all thought this recipe was the best Tuna Casserole we have ever had. I had subsituted a can of Cream of Celery for one of the cans of Cream of Mushroom, because our children aren't terribly fond of mushrooms. I also used onion powder instead of fresh onion, just to save time. I followed the advice of one of the other reviewers and warmed the soup/tuna mixture together while the noodles cooked. I made enough to feed an army, and it was all gone in one meal...with some of the boys asking for more. I will definitely make this recipe regularly!

I've made this recipe twice. Both times it was great. The second time I used half the noodles, only 1 can of tuna, 1 can of mushroom soup, half the cheese, and no onion. I also used frozen mixed vegetables instead of just peas. But the thing I found made the most difference was that I heated up the tuna/soup/cheese in a wok while the noodles were cooking. This saved time and the dish turned out much hotter. Plus you don't burn the bottom of the pot. The first time, I couldn't get the dish hot enough without burning the pot. When the noodles were ready I just put them in with the mixture. This tuna casserole is delicious and is so fast. It only took 20 minutes.

This was really gooey-perfect for a winter dish. Who knew that such ordinary ingredients could taste so good? It was really easy because unlike other tuna casseroles, you don't have to wait for it to bake in the oven. Next time I will cook the onion beforehand, though. The raw onion gives it a crunchy texture, but the flavor was so strong that it went up my nose as if I was eating wasabi.
