tuna supremo

I was tired of the same old tuna casserole, so I combined a couple of recipes. I like mine with a lot of black pepper. My mother likes hers with cream of celery soup instead of mushroom. Good served with garlic bread and a salad. Even my roommate likes this and he doesn't eat any kind of fish.

This scrumptiously decadent recipe takes tuna casserole to a whole other plane... a must-try! Super creamy, we loved the vegetable mixture. The cheesy and crunchy topping takes this easy dinner over the top. We guarantee everyone will love this tuna casserole.

How To Make tuna supremo

  • Tuna, soup, onion, mayo, frozen veggies, hot sauce, pimento, ricotta, water, and shredded cheddar in a bowl.
    Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix in large bowl tuna, soup, onion, mayo, frozen veggies, hot sauce, pimento, ricotta, water, and half a bag of shredded cheddar.
  • Folding in cooked noodles.
    Step 2
    Next fold in cooked egg noodles.
  • Mixture spread into a baking dish.
    Step 3
    Then spread the mixture in a 9x13 pan sprayed with non-stick spray.
  • Casserole covered in cheese.
    Step 4
    Cover with remaining cheese.
  • Margarine and crushed crackers spread over the top of the casserole.
    Step 5
    Mix melted margarine and crushed crackers until well coated. Sprinkle over casserole.

    Step 7
    HINT: I have also used pepper jack cheese in this instead of the cheddar and it's great if you like spice. I have had the suggestion of adding another can of tuna to this because with all the other flavors the tuna flavor is not very strong. To each his own.
