My Way Creamy Sauce - Tuna Casserole
- 2 (12 ounce) cans cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup milk or 1 cup half-and-half
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 cups Velveeta cheese, cut up in cubes
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 3/4 cup frozen peas
- 2 (6 ounce) cans solid white tuna, broken into large pieces
- 1 cup crushed saltine crackers
- 1/2 cup margarine, melted
- 2 1/4 cups cooked penne pasta
- 1/2 teaspoon Hungarian paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- In a sauce pan combine cream of mushroom soup, milk, Velveeta, frozen peas, onion, and spices.
- Stir several times over medium/low heat until the cheese is melted.
- In a bowl combine tuna, mayonnaise, pasta and only 1/2 the sauce, then pour into a 9x13 lightly greased glass baking dish.
- Set the remaining 1/2 sauce aside covered with a lid.
- Quickly mix the melted butter and crackers and sprinkle evenly across the casserole.
- A sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top is nice.
- Bake at 375u0b0F for 20-30 minutes or until the topping is light toasty brown.
- Note: The extra sauce will be served re-heated in a separate bowl and used like a gravy spooned over the casserole servings.
- Serve with a nice green salad and enjoy.
