Ingredients

  • 1 can of condensed cream of celery soup (10.75 ounces)
  • 1 cup of Cheddar cheese, freshly grated
  • ¾ cup of milk
  • ½ cup of sour cream
  • ½ cup of mayonnaise
  • 1 can of drained tuna (7 ounces)
  • 2 tablespoons of freshly chopped parsley
  • 1 tablespoon of freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon of salt
  • ½ teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 pound of cooked pasta
  • 1 ½ cups of bread crumbs, add more to taste

Step 1

Get ready to work some magic in the kitchen by preheating your oven to a cozy 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

In a 9x5-inch loaf pan, concoct a delightful mixture of cream of celery soup, creamy Cheddar cheese, milk, tangy sour cream, a dollop of mayonnaise, flavorful tuna, fresh parsley, zesty lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a dash of ground black pepper. Mix until the sauce is perfectly blended.

Step 3

Now, it's time to mingle the pasta with this luscious sauce until every strand is lovingly coated. Sprinkle a generous layer of breadcrumbs over the pasta for a delightful crunch.

Step 4

Pop your creation into the preheated oven and let it bake until the breadcrumbs achieve a beautiful golden hue and the sauce starts to bubble with anticipation, typically around 45 minutes. Enjoy the symphony of flavors that awaits you!
