Katie’s Tuna Pie

October 9, 2015 By 4 Comments

*I am reviving this recipe because I found it while I was preparing the menu for the week. I can’t believe that I haven’t made it in such a long time because it used to be one of our favorites! I have a gluten-free pie crust in the freezer so I think I will make it tonight. 🙂

This is my go-to recipe for tuna casserole (a.k.a. pie), which I owe to my friend, Katie. It is absolutely one of my family’s favorite recipes!

: Tuna Pie Casserole
  • 2 cans tuna, drained
  • 1/2 cup mayo
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
  • 1/3 cup green onion (scallions), green parts only, thinly sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 uncooked deep-dish pie shell (I usually use the ones from the frozen section)
  1. Mash tuna in small bowl.
  2. Combine mayo, milk, eggs, and cornstarch in a large bowl. Beat until smooth.
  3. Add tuna, cheese, onion, salt and pepper to above mixture and mix to combine.
  4. Pour into an uncooked pie shell.
  5. Bake in a preheated, 350 degree oven for 35-40 minutes or until browned and set.
  6. Let sit 3-5 minutes before cutting and serve.
  • To prevent contents from pie shell over-flowing into the oven, put filled pie on a cookie sheet before putting in oven.
  • Sometimes I will put this together in the morning and then refrigerate until ready to bake off for dinner.

    This sounds good, although hubby won’t touch fish of any kind. I wish somebody would start making gluten-free pie shells. It would make life so much easier for me.

      This recipe doesn’t have a strong tuna taste, but not sure if your husband would try it.

      With more and more people gluten-free, I’m surprised there isn’t a pie crust available, yet.
