Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Preheat the oven

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

2
Cook the egg noodles

Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

3
Prepare the vegetables

Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves.

4
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.

5
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.

6
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.

7
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!
