253 Reviews of Tuna Casserole

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!

    Wonderful recipe! I decreased the mayo to 1/4 cup and then added 1/4 cup of sour cream. We like the tuna that is packed in foil packages. I was afraid it might be too much tuna in the dish, but will use that amount again. I, too, used more cheddar than called for. Added a couple handfuls of frozen peas along with some sliced mushrooms. We like celery so upped the amount to 3/4 cup. Thanks, Tara, this is a definite keeper.

    Oh, this casserole was AWESOME!!! I used a 4 oz. can of drained mushrooms, and also added about 1/2 of a 16 oz. bag of frozen green peas, thawed. I also added a dash of garlic powder. This will definitely go into my list of faves!!! Plus it is EASY!!! Thank you ~Manda

    I told my friend I was making tuna casserole for supper and she said,EEW GROSS! but that didn't deter me from making it. Being this was my first time making this dish I didn't know what to expect. What I got was one of the most delicious casseroles I have ever tasted! So creamy good with a rich tuna taste. I sauteed the onions, celery and mushrooms and added a 1/4 cup of frozen peas which I nuked. Over the topping of cheese; I added some buttered breadcrumbs with a pinch of poultry seasoning. Am I ever glad I didn't listen to my friend cause what does she know anyways. Thanks Tara for a wonderful recipe.

    I'm not a big tuna fan, but this recipe is changed my mind. I made it with cream of mushroom soup instead, and used 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup sour cream, and threw in a handful of frozen peas and carrots and it was wonderful. Thanks!

    This was very good, but next time will probably drain tuna first and add a little more milk (a little too fishy, even for tuna casserole). We also added a can of peas...this made a good sized batch that fed all 5 of us. Will definatly make again. Thanks for posting this! =)

    I know you don't really need another 5 star review of this recipe but I am giving you one anyways. This is a delicious tuna casserole. I did everything as the recipe stated, using albacore tuna bottled in spring water, leaving it in big chunks. I topped it with buttery crushed ritz crackers and the cheese, and served it to several ladies I had invited over for lunch. We all agreed that it was delicious. Thanks for a lovely recipe I know I will make again!

    Yummy, yummy, yummy! I must say I made a "few" changes. I didn't have cr. of celery so I subbed cr. of chicken. I also decreased the mayo to 1/4 c., put more cheddar in, added some softened cream cheese (approx. 4 oz.) and added a can of drained mushrooms. Rich delicious comfort food. Thanks for the inspiration!

    When I told my husband that we were having tuna casserole, the expression on his face was less than cheerful...but he LOVED this recipe and even shared it with a co-worker! I added 1 cup of sharp cheddar on the top for a cheesier topping. Yummy.
