Tuna noodle casserole made with nutrient-dense ingredients that pack a flavor punch. The easy, gluten-free recipe uses frozen Taste Republic Egg Noodles (available at Sprouts) but any egg noodles will work. You can make this casserole in a 10-cup glass microwave cookware with a vented lid, (like Anyday) or on the stovetop. Both methods are finished under the broiler for a golden brown crunchy crust.

Ingredients

2 cups wide egg noodles such as Taste Republic Gluten Free Egg Noodles
1 4-ounce container sliced gourmet mushrooms (about 1 cup)
1 cup chicken bone broth or stock such as Brodo Spicy Nonna
1 shallot, chopped (about 2 ounces)
2 tablespoons capers
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 5-ounce cans tuna, drained such as Safe Catch Wild Ahi Tuna
¼ cup nutritional yeast divided
¼ cup grated Parmesan divided
1 tablespoon finely chopped Italian parsley
¼ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt

Instructions

Microwave Method: Place the egg noodles, mushrooms, bone broth or stock, shallot, capers, lemon juice and zest in the microwave cookware. Stir until all of the noodles are coated with liquid. Put on the lid and lift the stopper to vent. Microwave on high for 3 minutes. Stir well and cook for 7-10 minutes longer or until the noodles are soft.
Stove-top Method: If you do not have a lidded microwave baking dish with a vent, using a medium saucepan, add the egg noodles, mushrooms, bone broth or stock, shallot, capers, lemon juice and zest, stir and simmer on the stovetop over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, then transfer to a 10-cup broiler-safe baking dish.
To Finish: Preheat the broiler Stir in the tuna, parsley, half of the nutritional yeast, half of the Parmesan. Then stir in the sour cream or Greek yogurt. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan and nutritional yeast over the top. Broil uncovered for 5 to 7 minutes, until golden brown. Serve immediately.
