    Why We love this EASY Tuna Noodle Casserole Recipe

    I was so happy with the Broccoli Ham Casserole Recipe that I shared with you guys last month – I mean, it came out really yummy!

    My Broccoli Ham Casserole Recipe has been equally popular on Pinterest, so, I thought that I would take this time to share more casserole style meals with all of you! With the cost of groceries going sky high - thanks inflation!! - We are getting creative in the kitchen!

    With stores being out of stock for so many items – oh, we are talking about staples like eggs, butter, meats, etc – not just toilet paper and disinfecting wipes! – and let us be honest as well, many people are struggling financially and food resources are limited…

    It’s time to go through our pantries or kitchen cabinets and get creative at mealtime, and our Tuna Noodle Casserole Recipe is not only an easy comfort food recipe, but it is a cheap meal idea too!

    Can you use canned Tuna in this easy Tuna Noodle Casserole Recipe?

    Of course you can use canned tuna instead of pouches, I know that many of us are really struggling to find the products we love in stores lately, and we gotta do what we gotta do!
    You can use canned tuna. I just had pouches on hand because all of the stores had run out of canned tuna.
