    ThermoFun - Creamy Tuna Muffins Recipe

    Jump to recipe

    These muffins are a great idea for a finger food – not only do they taste great when they are hot, they also go down well when they are cold, so they would be very suitable to put in lunch boxes. The muffins freeze well too. The tuna mornay recipe is one I’ve been making for about 20 years and I decided to turn them into muffins by adding a little more cheese, an egg and breadcrumbs.

      Wow, these are delicious! Such a good idea for weekday snacks. I replaced the onion with half spanish onion, replaced the macaroni with risoni, replaced dry mustard with Dijon mustard, only added 1 Tbsp of lemon juice (from laziness), split 150g of the cheese to 50g parmesan and 100g tasty cheese, used fresh corn and added grated carrot. I spooned the mixture into muffin patty cases to protect the muffin tray from cheese (also from laziness). These will definitely be a regular snack item, thank you!

      What a great idea, they are really tasty and perfect for lunch boxes for young and old. I added a touch of zucchini and capsicum to mine as always try to up the veggie count. Thanks for this new addition to my lunchbox repitoire. Recommended!
