How to Make Tuna Noodle Casserole Dairy And Soy Free

  1. Cook 1 pound egg noodles according to package directions. Rinse with cool water and set aside.

  3. Remove vegetables from skillet and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, melt 1/4 cup shortening (or substitute with olive or corn oil).
  5. Whisk in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and 2 tablespoons cornstarch until smooth. Add a pinch of black pepper.
  6. Gradually whisk in 2 cups rice milk until smooth and thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
  7. Return the sautéed vegetables to the skillet and heat through for 1-2 minutes.
  8. Add more rice milk if needed to reach desired consistency.
  9. Remove from heat and set aside.
  10. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  11. In a large casserole dish, combine the creamy mushroom sauce, 1/2 cup additional rice milk, and 1/4 cup minced onion.
  12. Gently fold in two 5-ounce cans of tuna, drained, and 1 cup frozen peas.
  13. Add the cooked noodles, gently folding to combine.
  14. Cover the casserole dish and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 10 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
