Ingredients

5 cups uncooked egg noodles

1 cup (8-ounces) reduced-fat sour cream

1/2 cup fat-free mayonnaise

2 to 3 teaspoons lemon juice

2 tablespoons butter

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

2 cups fat-free milk

1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese, divided

1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed n squeezed dry

1 package (6 ounces) reduced sodium chicken stuffing mix

1/3 cup seasoned breadcrumbs

2 cans ( 6 ounces each) light water-packed tuna, drained and flaked

Directions

Cook noodles according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise and lemon juice; set aside.

In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, melt butter. Stir in flour until blended. Gradually stir in milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Reduce heat; stir in 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese until melted. Remove from the heat; stir in the sour cream mixture. Add the spinach, stuffing mix, bread crumbs and tuna. Mix well.

Drain noodles and place in a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray. Top with tuna mixture, sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese.

Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Uncover; bake 5-10 minutes longer or until lightly browned and heated through.
