A healthy twist on a classic comfort food, this Quinoa Tuna Casserole combines tender quinoa with creamy Greek yogurt and hearty tuna, topped with a golden crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 2 cans tuna, drained
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (peas, corn, and carrots)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (optional for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C), setting the stage for a perfectly baked casserole.
  2. Rinse the quinoa under cold water to remove any bitterness, then cook it according to package instructions until fluffy.
  3. Combine the cooked quinoa, drained tuna, Greek yogurt, shredded cheese, mixed vegetables, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
  4. Mix everything together until well combined, ensuring every ingredient is coated in creamy goodness.
  5. Transfer the mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it evenly to allow for thorough cooking.
  6. Add breadcrumbs on top for a delightful crunchy texture, if using.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until heated through and the top is golden brown.
  8. Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

For an even creamier dish, consider adding a splash of milk or extra Greek yogurt. You can swap in any vegetables you have on hand.
