Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Tuna Noodle Casserole Classic.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 400°F (205°C).
Step 2
While that warms up, grab a 1 1/2-quart baking dish and combine your hot, cooked egg noodles with the drained tuna, creamy celery soup, tender cooked peas, milk, and those optional pimentos if you’re feeling adventurous.
Step 3
Give everything a good mix until it’s all beautifully blended together.
Step 4
Once your oven is ready, pop the dish inside and let it bake for about 20 minutes, filling your kitchen with a delightful aroma.
Step 5
While the casserole is baking, take a moment to mix dry bread crumbs with melted butter in a small bowl until they’re perfectly combined.
Step 6
After the 20 minutes are up, carefully remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle that buttery breadcrumb mixture generously over the top.
Step 7
Return the dish to the oven for another 5 minutes, or until the topping turns a lovely golden brown.
Step 8
Your delicious casserole is now ready to be enjoyed—dig in and savor every bite!.
