7:20 Adding the bread crumbs
8:06 Tasting the recipe
INGREDIENTS
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 cup fresh bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 stalks celery, roughly chopped
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 1 1/2 cups whole milk
- 3 cups pasta shells
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup Neufchâtel Cheese
- 8 oz cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tsp lemon zest
- 2 5-oz cans tuna, drained and flaked into pieces
- 1 1/4 cups frozen peas, thawed
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a 4-6 quart saucepan, melt 1 tbsp butter over medium-low heat. Add the bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Stir and cook the breadcrumbs until they are browned, 4-6 minutes. Once cooked, remove the crumbs from the saucepan and set them aside to cool.
- In the same saucepan, melt the remaining 2 tbsp of butter. Once melted, add the onion, celery, salt, and black pepper. Sauté until the onion turns translucent and begins to soften, 4-6 minutes. Add the garlic and Italian seasoning and stir until fragrant, 30 seconds.
- Add the chicken stock and milk. Bring the mixture to a simmer and add the pasta. Cover and simmer until the pasta is cooked al dente, 8-10 minutes.
- Once the pasta is cooked, continue to simmer and add the heavy cream, Neufchâtel cheese, and half of the cheddar cheese. Stir until the cheeses are melted and smooth, 3 minutes.
- Add the lemon zest, tuna, and peas. Stir to combine and warm the peas, 2-3 minutes. Add the remaining shredded cheese, turn the heat off, cover, and allow the cheese to melt. Once melted, add the bread crumbs, sprinkle with parsley, and serve.

From my farm to your home. ????
My name is Kaleb Wyse and here, you will find delicious recipes, videos from my farm, garden, and fun home projects. My knowledge has been earned from years of home cooks and farmers in my family.
A farm is much more than a house to live in; it’s a lifestyle. My passion for gardening and landscaping came from outdoor work with my mom in our expansive farm yard, my love for baking came from innumerable short walks to my grandma’s house to make cookies, and as a farmer, my dad taught me that we are the stewards of our land.
So whether you live in a city center or have decided rural life is for you, I hope to inspire you with the projects and recipes I use in daily life. We can’t all live on a farm, but we all need farms in our lives. From the dirt in my vegetable garden to the flour in my kitchen, I’ll show you everything I love to do.
