Tuna and mushroom pasta bake
A nice, cheap, store-cupboard dinner. I tend to serve this with a salad and maybe some garlic bread. Thanks to ruthymunchkin for the photo.
Ingredients
Serves: 4
- 150g mushrooms, sliced
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 knob butter
- 1 tablespoon plain flour
- 300ml milk
- 150g frozen peas and sweetcorn
- 1 (200g) tin tuna, drained
- 100g cheese, grated
- 250g pasta, cooked and drained

- Preheat the oven to 200 C / Gas 6.
- Gently fry the mushrooms and onion in the butter. Stir in the flour and cook for a minute.
- Slowly stir in the milk, then add the peas and sweetcorn. Simmer for a few minutes, stirring to thicken.
- Stir in the tuna and half of the cheese. Mix the sauce into the pasta and tip into an ovenproof dish. Cover with the remaining cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes, until the top is golden.
Tip
I sometimes mix a packet of crushed ready salted crisps with the cheese to go on top (you may not need all of the bag). This adds a nice crunch to the top.

I added red pepper and sweet corn to this. It was scrumptious. Xx - 18 Jul 2015
delicious! Just added a teaspoon and a half of lazy garlic and served with a crip salad. Yummy. Next time I'll try some different veg with the peas, I'll definitely be cooking this again! - 04 Jan 2018
Was tasty. I used a red pepper in place of the mushrooms. It was nice because of all the colour. Am definitely saving this to make again - 21 Mar 2014
