I loved the cream cheese in this easy recipe. I used 2 cups of dried breadcrumbs in a round casserole dish, I should have used just 1 cup. Maybe if I put this in a 9x13" pan the 2 cups would of worked better. Next time I make this I will saute the onions with 1/2 cup of celery for more flavor. Thank you for another keeper!!

This was very tasty, but I would omit the breadcrumbs on top. First of all, it doesn't need it. Second, it was just too much. I spinkled a little cheddar on top instead. Also, this doesn't taste very good re-heated, so try to eat it all in one sitting.

I'm always looking for new Tuna Noodle recipes and I'll be keeping this one! I did tweak it a little - sauteed green pepper, onion and garlic in a little butter, used only one can of tuna (in water) and substituted cream of celery soup for the mushroom since I don't care for cream of mushroom soup. Only other thing I did was use cornflake crumbs (I wanted to finish off the box) instead of breadcrumbs. Very moist, creamy and tasty. Thanks!

Really easy. What I did was used 1 can of tuna, 1/2 onion (sauteed first for kids sake) and used 1 cup breadcrumbs. Quite rich and filling.

Excellent. My DH doesn't even like Tuna Casserole but we've had this one twice now and he really doesn't mind it. Never changed a thing and it tastes great!

I was never a real fan of tuna, but this meal changed my mind! I made this for my boyfriend expecting to have something else for dinner. Lets just said WE both ended up eating it for dinner. I used tuna in water, cream of celery soup (lowfat), garlic and cornflake crumbs as subsitutions. I made it in round casserole dish and just 1 cup of crumbs was perfect. Thank you!

Charlotte... I use a 9 x 13 pan, for a smaller pan 1 cup of breadcrumbs would be plenty. Good idea to sauté the onions with celery, I’ll have to try that next time!

I had my doubts about all the cream cheese and warned hubby this might be too rich, he hates cream cheese so didn't mention this ingredient...he said after dinner this is the only tuna casserole he will ever eat again. I used wide noodles and sauted onions with 1 stick celery.

This is very adaptable to the South Beach Diet. I used whole wheat pasta, the Healthy Request soup, fat free cream cheese and I added a few frozen peas, just because tuna casserole is good with peas. This is a creamy, satisfying dish while not being hard on the waistline! Thanks, Carole in Orlando

Good and creamy but a little on the bland side. My daughter gobbled it up so we'll make it up again and add in some more tastebud kickers. I made half a recipe but used a whole can of soup. I made this with leftover roasted chicken instead of the tune and added 1/2 bag of frozen spinach. It's a gread way to use up left over chicken.
