Cooking tuna noodle casserole on a large baking sheet results in even more creamy cheesy filling and a crispy crust. For the perfect topping, combine panko breadcrumbs with crushed crackers. And the flavorful cheese sauce is made from scratch without the traditional canned soup.



The recipes use measuring containers with the following volumes:
1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.
2/3 cup (st.) - 160 ml.
1/2 cup (st.) - 125 ml.
1/3 cup (st.) - 80 ml.
1/4 cup (st.) - 60 ml.
1 tablespoon (tbsp) - 15 ml.
1 teaspoon (tsp) - 5 ml.
1/5 teaspoon (tsp) - 1 ml.

Ingredients for the recipe:


  • 350 g egg noodles
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 220 g brown mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp. cream 10%
  • 220 g cream cheese, diced, at room temperature

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 230°C and spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  2. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the noodles and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente according to package directions, about 5 minutes. Drain the noodles in a colander and discard the water. Set the noodles aside and return the saucepan to medium-high heat.

  3. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, mushrooms, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are softened and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the cream, cream cheese, and noodle water. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until smooth, about 2 more minutes. Reduce heat to low, then stir in the cheddar, Dijon mustard, cayenne pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until all the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.
  4. Stir in the noodles, tuna, and green peas (the mixture should be runny, but will thicken as it bakes). Taste and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine crushed crackers, panko breadcrumbs and the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, then sprinkle the mixture evenly over the tuna noodles. Bake until the topping is golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
