It's that time of year again. The time of year when every Sunday is game day. It's football season, baby! To celebrate the dusting off of the gridiron, Chevron Texaco is bringing back the Game Day Chef Challenge.
The Game Day Chef Challenge is Back
Back for its second year, the Game Day Chef Challenge from Chevron is on the hunt for the best game day dish for some tailgating deliciousness. They're asking football fans, foodies, and chefs to enter their go-to game day dish with one or more food or beverage ingredients purchased at a Chevron Texaco.
It can be simple or involved. A quick throw-together or an all day smoke house feast. The Challenge welcomes all recipes.
CAN THIS Tuna Noodle Casserole BE MADE AHEAD OF TIME?
You can totally make this Tuna Noodle Casserole Recipe ahead of time and just reheat it. I wouldn’t recommend freezing it, though! This easy dinner recipe is a simple one to make in advance for dinner and tastes just as good when reheated.
Just submit your unique recipe using one or more ingredients from a Chevron Texaco to The Game Day Chef Challenge web page for a chance to win great prizes.
The contest starts Saturday, August 1st through Wednesday, September 30th, so start thinking up a winner or pull out a favorite, and submit it!
My Game Day Winner - Tuna Noodle Casserole
I stopped by my local Chevron station and was happy to find a few great proteins to make a quick and easy game day meal.
Between tuna, jerky, and sausages, I knew that tuna was going to be the winner in our house!
Tuna Noodle Casserole Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 - 10.5 can of cream of chicken soup
- 2 - 2.5 oz tuna pouches
- 1 can of milk
- 12 oz noodles any shape (for this recipe I used penne)

Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the pasta according to package directions (about 10-12 minutes).
- While the pasta is cooking, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- In a medium size baking dish, combine the cream of chicken soup, milk and tuna. Add salt & pepper to taste (see photo).
- Once the noodles have finished cooking, drain and add them to the soup and tuna mixture (see photo).

When I was a kid my mom would always make this and I loved it, which is ironic since i hate tuna. I might have to revive my mom's recipe and try it again.

My hubby always talks about making this and I nix the idea because I'm not a huge tuna fan... but maybe I should give it a try. This does look pretty yummy!

I'm fixing this today, in fact it is ready for the oven. I made my soup from scratch and what I have tasted so far is so yummy! Thank you for sharing this. I also used to make a recipe similar to this with out the pasta, the sauce was poured over the crispy chinese noodles, my kids enjoyed this too.
