Certainly! Here's a recipe for a classic comfort food dish, tuna casserole:

 

Ingredients:

  • 8 ounces egg noodles
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2 cans (5 ounces each) tuna, drained
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • Salt and pepper to taste

 

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set it aside.
  2. Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and sliced mushrooms. Sauté until the onions are translucent and the mushrooms have softened.
  4. Sprinkle the flour over the onion and mushroom mixture. Stir well to coat the vegetables. Cook for about 1-2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste.
  5. Gradually pour in the milk and chicken broth, stirring constantly to avoid any lumps. Cook the mixture over medium heat until it thickens and comes to a simmer.
  6. Add the frozen peas and drained tuna to the skillet. Stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet and toss everything together until well combined.
  8. Transfer the mixture to the greased baking dish and spread it evenly.
  9. In a small bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese and breadcrumbs. Sprinkle this mixture over the top of the casserole.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is heated through.
  11. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
