With its mix of petite diced tomatoes, tomato soup, chili powder, finely chopped onion, tuna, thyme, rice and just a tad of sugar, the tuna flavor isn’t as strong as in some casseroles, tuna patties or loaves from what I noticed.

Ingredients
  • 2 cans of tuna 5 oz., drained
  • 1 can of petite diced tomatoes 28 oz.
  • 1 can condensed tomato soup 10.75 oz.
  • 2 cups of uncooked rice
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoons of chili powder
  • ½ teaspoons of thyme leaves
  • 2 teaspoons of sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
  • 4 cups of water
  • ½ cups of finely chopped onion
  • 3 tablespoons of olive oil
Instructions
  1. Gently brown the finely chopped onion in a heavy pot before adding the rice, water and the rest of the ingredients. You want this mix to briefly heat through before covering with a lid and transferring to your oven.
  2. Bake in a 350-degree oven for about 30-35 minutes or until the rice is tender. You may want to check in on the tuna jambalaya after the first 15 minutes and give it a stir.
  3. ENJOY!
