The ingredients for Skinny Tuna Noodle Casserole are:

8 oz. whole wheat pasta
2-3 Tbsp. butter, unsalted
1 medium onion, chopped
1 cup milk, nonfat
1 oz. Sherry (optional)
1 3/4 c. Chicken Broth - Fat Free Less Sodium
3 Tbsp. flour
2 cups sliced fresh Mushrooms
1 cup peas, frozen
2 (5oz.) cans tuna
1 cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded
2 Tbsp. Parmesan Cheese, shredded
2 Tbsp. Whole Wheat Bread Crumbs

Here is how you make Skinny Tuna Noodle Casserole:

Cook noodles in salted water until al dente, or slightly undercooked by 2 minutes. Set aside.Melt the butter in a large deep skillet. Add onions and cook on medium heat until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the flour and a pinch of salt and stir well, cooking an additional 2-3 minutes on medium-low heatPreheat oven to 375?. Lightly spray 9 x 12 casserole with butter flavored cooking spray.Slowly whisk in the chicken broth until well combined, increasing heat to medium and whisking well for 30 seconds, then add the milk and bring to a boil. When boiling, add sherry, mushrooms and petite peas, adjust salt and pepper to taste and simmer on medium, mixing occasionally until it thickens (about 6-7 minutes)*. Add drained tuna, stirring another minute.Remove from heat and add 1 cup reduced fat sharp cheddar and mix well until it melts. Add the noodles to the sauce and mix well until evenly coated. Pour into casserole and top with parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs. Spray a little more cooking spray and top and bake for about 20 - 25 minutes. Place under the broiler a few minutes to get the crumbs crisp (careful not to burn).*TIP: Don't try to get your sauce too thick -- whole wheat pasta tends to soak up a lot of moisture and if your sauce is thick to start, you will end up with a dry casserole.Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SHAYNADOI.
