Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, garlic, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Add the flour to the skillet and stir until well combined. Gradually whisk in the milk and continue cooking, constantly stirring, until the sauce has thickened.
  5. Stir in the sour cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  6. Add the drained tuna and frozen peas to the skillet and stir to combine.
  7. Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet and stir gently to coat the pasta with the sauce.
  8. Transfer the mixture to a 2-quart baking dish and smooth the top.
  9. In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle the mixture over the top of the casserole.
  10. Bake the casserole for 25-30 minutes until it's hot and bubbly and the top is golden brown.
  11. **You can substitute egg noodles for pasta, such as penne or macaroni.**
  12. **For a healthier version of this recipe, you can use low-fat milk and sour cream and reduce the amount of butter and Parmesan cheese.**
  13. **If you like your casserole with a bit of crunch, add some chopped nuts, such as almonds or pecans, to the breadcrumb and Parmesan cheese topping.**
  14. **For a spicy kick, you can add some red pepper flakes or hot sauce to the sauce.**
  15. **To make this recipe gluten-free, you can use gluten-free pasta and substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.**
