This was a very good tuna casserole. I would make it again for sure. Nice easy, quick, week night meal for a working mom!! I would have given it five stars...but there was no mention of salt in the recipe. I think it needed a little. Otherwise it was great. Thanks for posting!

So, this month my funds are quite limited due to being laid off and accepting a job for FAR less pay. Having several cans of tuna in the pantry, I wanted to see what I could make using this without buying too many extra ingredients. Thus, I found this recipe. It was fabulous!!! Although I live alone, I wanted to double it to have enough for lunch/dinner for the week. I ended up having to buy 2 cups cheese, 2 cans cream of celery soup, and 1 & 1/2 cups evaporated milk. The rest of the ingredients I had. I did, however, omit the celery and onion, as I didn't have them, and I didn't feel like chopping them even if I had bought them. I used elbow macaroni, but I didn't use it all (16 oz for a doubled recipe). I added enough to be substantial, but not enough for it to, when it cooled down, absorb all of the liquid. As I didn't add celery or onion, I added an extra (4 oz) can of drained mushroooms. Doubled, this filled a 9x13" pan and an 11x6" pan. I made this in the evening on 10-5-09. I had it for dinner that night. Today is 10-7-09 and in an effort to save money, I have had it for breakfast, lunch and dinner everyday since then. One might assume I would be completely sick of it. However that is not the case. I am actually looking forward to my dinner of it tonight, and my breakfast (which should finish it off) tomorrow morning. During the previous days at my new job I have spent upwards of $25+ in breakfast, lunch, and dinner alone. With this casserole I have saved $65 dollars! Believe it or not, I look forward to making this again soon, as it is that good! Thank you for the recipe!

I have been jonesing for tuna casserole for awhile now and this hit the spot. Cream of celery soup and mushrooms are a must (though my mom always made it with peas- which is good too). I added the full cup (and a generous one at that) of cheese into the casserole and topped it with crushed cracker crumbs instead (though I like crushed potato chips as well). Really good!!! Thanks for posting this Tara- I will be making this again and again. I wonder how it would taste with chicken? Hmmmm....

Very good. The cream of celery soup gave a nice flavor. I added the mushrooms and 1/2 t salt. I used more cheese, 1 cup on top. We really liked this. Will make again. Thanks, Tara!
