POOR MAN'S TUNA NOODLE CASSEROLE



Poor Man's Tuna Noodle Casserole image

When I was a young bachelor I could purchase a can of tuna on sale 4 cans for 1.00, cream of mushroom soup was 4 cans for a dollar and macaroni and cheese was 4 boxes for a dollar. I could make this meal for fewer than two dollars and have leftovers for lunch the next day. It was easy tasty and nutritious.

BEST TUNA NOODLE CASSEROLE



Best Tuna Noodle Casserole image

This tuna noodle casserole is the best with a classic creamy taste from my childhood. The sauce is rich and creamy but not overwhelmingly heavy. The crunch from the topping and fresh bite from the parsley create the perfect balance. Let's not forget that this is a great budget-friendly meal to feed a crowd!

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 (12 ounce) package egg noodles
4 ¼ teaspoons kosher salt, divided
4 tablespoons salted butter, divided
5 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
1 small white onion, minced
¼ cup all-purpose flour
