TASTES LIKE THE CLASSIC!!!! Let’s revisit this one.
Brace yourselves. This is AMAZING. It truly tastes like tuna noodle casserole, and the textures all come together really well for this recipe! I don’t usually incorporate canned food into my recipes, but I made an exception here to capture the flavor of the casserole of my youth. The net carbs for each serving are 7g. This works well for my macros as a serving is quite large and is a complete meal.
Ingredients:
- 1 bag cauliflower rice (from Trader Joes) or one riced cauliflower.
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup.
- 2 14oz can mushrooms well drained (use only one can if you don’t really love mushrooms)
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream or sour cream OR 2/3 cup sour cream
- 2/3 cup frozen peas
- 4 cans (5 oz each) tuna
- 1 cup and 1/2 cup finely shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Microwave the riced cauliflower for seven minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients except for the 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese. Spread the mixture into a casserole dish. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake for 20 minutes.
Makes 6 large servings.

Yum! This brings back childhood memories. Thanks for making it low carb. I did have to zoom in on the bag of cauliflower rice. We don’t have a trader joe’s here, so I wanted to see how many ounces you were using. My bags were only 10 oz, but it worked out.

Sorry about that! The Trader Joe’s bags are 12 ounces. Glad you enjoyed it!

This looks great!! If I use a head of cauliflower and rice it myself do I need to do anything with it before adding to the casserole?

I would recommend microwaving the riced cauliflower for about 7-8 minutes to get the taste and moisture out.
