This delightful From Scratch Tuna Noodle Casserole contains no canned soup and is wonderfully creamy with a crunchy potato chip topping. This is seriously one of the most delicious casseroles I have ever eaten and it’s such a classic American dish.

 
From Scratch Tuna Noodle Casserole is a wonderful combination of  egg noodles, creamy sauce, cheddar cheese, and peas. This recipe is adapted from the Country Cooking from a Redneck Kitchen cookbook and it is a winner. The best thing about this recipe is the homemade Cream of Celery Soup. It does add an extra step, but it is so worth it. Alot of celery is used to make it but don’t worry, the celery flavor does not overpower it.

 
Tips for Making From Scratch Tuna Noodle Casserole
Use a good quality canned tuna. I like to use solid albacore tuna for this recipe. It costs a little more but has less fishy taste. As a negative, it also has a higher mercury content. Use the kind of tuna you use to make tuna salad and you should be happy.
Using a homamde sauce gives this cassrole a superior flavor and as a bonus, it allows you to control the salt level.
I like to use a crushed potato chip topping. I use a wavy chip, but you could use crushed crackers or bread crumbs instead.
