Do you have a recipe that you remember eating as a kid and no matter what, that dish always reminds you of being little again. That’s this dish for me. Not sure why, but Tuna Casserole was a staple in our house as I was growing up.

I remember being little and thinking that this dish was the bomb.com. Yes I said bomb.com. But come on I was a kid and loved tuna casserole. Fast forward 10 years and still till this day it reminds me of home.

When I got married I remembering asking my mom for the recipe. Her response was “Honey it’s just egg noodles, tuna cans, cream of mushroom soup and ruffles chips. Mix, bake and your set. Oh don’t forget the side of sliced tomatoes.” Okay, that seemed easy enough. So I set out to make it.

I made it that way for years, but then I changed the soup mixtures, added more vegetables and added in some french onions . Now I think my tuna casserole is the adult version of bomb.com. But no matter what I add or take away from this recipe, it will always remind me of home. Do you have a favorite childhood dish?

Next time you’re pressed for time, or just need something quick to throw together, make this recipe. It takes minutes to throw together and tastes amazing! Oh and don’t forget the side of sliced tomatoes to go with it. If you are feeling adventurous too, sprinkle some sugar on top of the tomatoes. Sounds funny I know, but it’s so good. Seriously the best!
