Cheesy No Bake Tuna Casserole For One

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I think the Big question for Emily is "drain or not drain" That is not mentioned in the recipe or instructions except if you use the broccoli. I made the recipe exactly with no substitutions. I did drain the green beans, but didn't drain the tuna. The flavor was good and it was extremely easy to make. It was too watery for my tastes. Next time I will drain both the green bean and the tuna. If I was going to add something to the recipe it would be mushrooms (tuna and mushrooms pair together well) and maybe some finely chopped red pepper to give the dish a little pop in color. Thanks Emily for posting your recipe.

    Cheesy No-Bake Tuna Casserole (For One), I make this often as a light lunch since it is so easy, inexpensive and nutritious (check out the vitamin content!) Not to mention it is gluten free! I often substitute 1 1/2 cups broccoli for the green beans though it will make it more watery if you don’t thaw the broccoli first and discard excess water (I don’t do this typically though, I just throw the ingredients in a container the night before and let the broccoli thaw overnight and don’t mind the extra liquid) , I think the Big question for Emily is drain or not drain That is not mentioned in the recipe or instructions except if you use the broccoli I made the recipe exactly with no substitutions I did drain the green beans, but didn’t drain the tuna The flavor was good and it was extremely easy to make It was too watery for my tastes Next time I will drain both the green bean and the tuna If I was going to add something to the recipe it would be mushrooms (tuna and mushrooms pair together well) and maybe some finely chopped red pepper to give the dish a little pop in color Thanks Emily for posting your recipe , Really good!! I made this for a quick lunch as I had all the ingredients on hand (used broccoli) – I didn’t really expect much, but the simple combination really is very tasty! I drained the excess water before stirring For some reason the cheeses did glue everything together though (and I mean really sticky-glued!), so this was a bit difficult to eat – don’t know if it was the particular brands used or what, but it was nothing a knife couldn’t solve! 🙂 A great recipe for a quick, healthy lunch, thank you very much for sharing!
