Join the discussionI have a question about how to reheat. I am planning on making this is a glass 8×8 baking pan. In order to reheat it says to put it on stove and heat through? Are you thinking that we should defrost it first? I’ve never placed a glass baking pan directly on the stove and I feel like going from frozen to heated in glass will make the pan crack….
Going from frozen to stop top directly would 100% make the glass crack. So yes, you would need to defrost first for sure 🙂
I don’t think she meant put the oven pan on the stove. I wouldn’t put a glass oven pan on a stovetop ever. I’d thaw the casserole then reheat in glass in oven OR I’d thaw the casserole and scoop out into a stovetop pot or pan and reheat in that.
Do you measure the pasta before or after cooking?
Thanks for the question! You would measure the pasta after cooking.
Curious how long do you cook after adding the potatoes and mushrooms? Are they fully cooked/soft before the casserole goes into the oven?
Don’t have tuna at home but have extra cans of salmon so trying with that today 🙂
They don’t need to be fully cooked/soft as long as they are diced small enough they will cook in the oven. 3-5 minutes should be sufficient.
