Introduction

There are tuna casseroles, and then there are Sunday Supper Tuna Casseroles! Hands down the best I've ever had. If in a hurry, I have skipped the baking process. I've also served the sauce over toast, rice or potatoes. The canned cheese soup can be replaced with real cheese - about 4 oz. (sharp cheddar is good!) Hardest part is portion control because this is so tasty! There are tuna casseroles, and then there are Sunday Supper Tuna Casseroles! Hands down the best I've ever had.

    Very Good
    I used plain nonfat yogurt in the place of mayo. I love celery, it gives such a nice taste. - 9/1/11

    Very Good
    This is a good recipe. The peppers and celery add a new flavor I hadn't thought of using. I'll definitely make this again. - 6/14/09
