This easy tuna casserole has been one of my ultimate favorite casseroles for years! Super easy and quick to make using just a few basic ingredients. Flaky tuna and tender egg noodles tossed in a delicious cheesy creamy sauce and topped with buttery breadcrumb topping. This casserole is amazing to serve by itself, but also great to pair with a simple side salad.
I love casseroles because they are incredibly easy and quick to throw together. They are mostly very versatile, super comforting, and filling. Casseroles are also affordable. Just like this tuna casserole. You can also toss in leftovers or any kinds of veggies. Enjoy this casserole warm and bubbly anytime!
If you love casseroles as many people do, then this casserole is a gem! It’s the perfect casserole when you need a quick potluck entree or dinner. This easy tuna casserole is hands down one of the best casseroles!
