This dish is super easy. It is also a very hearty delicious bowl of comfort food. The guys in my house loved it. I loved this recipe but I used cream of mushroom soup and added the cheese into the casserole. I also melted butter and added bread crumbs to the top before baking, then sprinkle top lightly with dill seasoning. The resulting casserole was very creamy and flavorful. Ingredients:
1 (7.25 ounce) package macaroni and cheese |
1/4 cup butter |
1/4 cup milk |
1 (10.75 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup |
1 (6 ounce) can tuna, drained and flaked |
1/2 cup milk |
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley, or to taste (optional) |
1/4 cup bread crumbs |
1/4 cup butter, melted |
1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed, or to taste (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish.
2. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 8 minutes. Drain and return macaroni to pot.
3. Stir 1/4 cup butter, 1/4 cup milk, and powdered cheese from envelope into the cooked macaroni. Stir cream of mushroom soup, tuna, and 1/2 cup milk into the macaroni and cheese. Pour macaroni mixture into the prepared baking dish; top with Cheddar cheese and parsley.
4. Mix bread crumbs, melted butter, and dill in a small bowl; sprinkle over Cheddar cheese layer.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and bread crumb topping is lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
