SERVES: 4

COOK TIME: 1 Hr 20 Min

Everyone loves tuna, so we're always looking for new ways to make it special. We sure found it with our Tuna Rice Casserole, a no-fuss dish of tender rice and crispy French-fried onions.

What You'll Need

2 (10.75-ounce) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 (6-ounce) cans tuna, drained and flaked
1 (10-ounce) package frozen peas
1 1/2 cup long-grain parboiled white rice (see Note)
1 (2.8-ounce) can French-fried onions

What to Do

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a 2-1/2-quart casserole dish, combine soup, milk, water, butter, and pepper; mix well. Stir in tuna, peas, and rice then cover.
Bake 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove cover and top with French-fried onions (see Note); bake 5 to 7 more minutes, or until onions are golden and casserole is bubbly.

Notes

Long-grain parboiled white rice is also known as converted rice. Depending on the type of rice you use, cooking times may vary. Be sure your rice is tender before topping casserole with the French-fried onions.
