KRAFT® MAC AND CHEESE TUNA CASSEROLE



Kraft® Mac and Cheese Tuna Casserole image

I call this a classic tuna casserole because it is made with a boxed macaroni and cheese and the basic ingredients we all grew up with. This is comfort food at it's best, my two favorites mixed together. This is so good that I took a picture of it after having it for dinner and decided it should be shared on my favorite recipe site. You will love it too.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Salt
1 pound hollow cavatappi or elbows with lines, or macaroni with lines
About 3 tablespoons EVOO, plus extra for drizzling
12 ounces line-caught canned tuna, drained
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh herbs, such as dill, parsley and tarragon
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion or scallions, whites and greens
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 to 2 small ribs celery, finely chopped
1 lemon, juiced
Freshly ground black pepper
1 stick butter

About 2 1/2 cups whole milk
2 cups grated white Cheddar or gruyere cheese
1 1/2 cups homemade breadcrumbs or panko
1/2 cup grated Parm

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to boil for the pasta. Salt the water and cook the pasta to less than al dente, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain and drizzle with a touch of oil to keep the pasta loose.

  • In a medium saucepot, melt 4 tablespoons of butter. Whisk in the flour and cook 1 minute. Then whisk in the milk and season with salt and pepper, thicken to coat the back of a spoon. Stir in the Cheddar in a figure-eight motion. Pour the sauce evenly over the pasta and tuna. Gently combine with a spoon to settle the sauce. Cool and store for a make-ahead meal.
  • Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in a small pan and add the breadcrumbs and reserved herbs, toss to evenly distribute the butter, remove from heat and transfer to airtight container.
  • To prepare, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and bring the casserole to room temperature. Top the casserole with breadcrumbs and Parm cheese. Bake until golden and hot through.

  • Boil the pasta in heavily salted water in a 2-quart saucepan according to the package directions.
  • Heat the empty saucepan over low heat. Add the butter and cream cheese and melt for 1 minute, stirring frequently, or until the butter is melted and starting to foam. Note: it's ok if the butter and cream cheese look separated. They will melt together completely in the next step.
  • Add the cheddar cheese, milk, and salt to the pan. Increase the temperature to medium-low and let the mixture come to a simmer, stirring the mixture as it cooks. Simmer the sauce for 5-6 minutes, continuing to stir every 15-30 seconds or so, or until the sauce is thickened and creamy. Note: you want the sauce to simmer lightly, but not boil or burn. If it starts to boil turn the heat back down to low.
