Steps
Read instructions and get ready to cook
Preheat the oven
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Cook the egg noodles
Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Prepare the vegetables
Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
Make the sauce
In a large saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the all-purpose flour and cook for 1-2 minutes. Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper.
Assemble the casserole
In a large bowl, combine the cooked egg noodles, drained tuna, frozen mixed vegetables, and the cheese sauce. Mix well and transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Bake the casserole
Bake the cheesy tuna casserole for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges are lightly browned.
Serve
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes. Serve hot, enjoying the creamy, cheesy, and comforting flavors of this classic dish!
