Description

A delicious and creamy pasta dish made with tuna, egg noodles, and a variety of vegetables.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 oz egg noodles
  • 1 can (8-12 oz) tuna (albacore chunk preferred, drained)
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup mushrooms (sliced)
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp pepper (optional)
  • 1 cup half and half
  • 1 cup cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients except for half and half and cheese into your Instant Pot and gently stir together.
  2. Put lid on and close steam valve.
  3. Set to pressure high for 3 minutes.
  4. Do a quick release and open the pot.
  5. Slowly stir in half and half and cheese (can use less or more cheese depending on your taste).
  6. Put lid back on ajar and allow to sit for about 3 minutes so it can thicken up and cheese can melt.
  7. Then take lid off. The longer it sits the thicker it will become.
  8. (You can add some hot liquid in a bowl with some cornstarch then add back into the pot to thicken quicker too.) Serve!

Notes

  • For a thicker consistency, let the dish sit after cooking.
  • Adding cornstarch to hot liquid can expedite thickening.
