Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
In a large pot of salted water boil the noodles until they are al dente. Drain well and set aside.
In a large skillet (one with high sides) on low/medium heat, melt the butter, then add the minced onions and celery. Cook until the onions are soft and translucent.
Then stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute.
Stir in the mustard powder if you’re using it.
Whisk in the milk and simmer until the sauce is thickened.
Then stir in the tuna, simmering for about 3 minutes.
Stir in the noodles.
Transfer the mixture to a 9×13 baking dish.
Sprinkle on the shredded cheese to cover the top evenly.
Bake uncovered for 25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling.
