Ingredients for Velveeta Tuna Noodle Casserole

  • Egg Noodles
  • Frozen Peas And Carrots
  • 2 (5 ounce) cans tuna in water, drained
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 8 ounces Velveeta cheese, cubed
  • French Fried Onion Rings

How to Make Velveeta Tuna Noodle Casserole

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  3. In a large bowl, cook noodles according to package directions. Drain well.
  4. Stir in the Velveeta cheese, until melted and smooth.
  5. Add the drained tuna, cream of mushroom soup, milk, peas, and celery. Mix well to combine.
  6. Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  7. Top with French fried onions.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly. If the top is browning too quickly, loosely cover with foil.
  9. Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
