This is a popular comfort food dish.
It's far from gourmet, but it is hearty,
heart-warming, easy, quick, and inexpensive.
You can substitute crab, lobster, salmon, chicken
or turkey for the tuna with equal results.
Instructions:
1 Tbsp butter or olive oil
1/2 cup diced onion
1/2 cup diced celery
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup water or milk
8 ounced frozen peas
1 (6-ounce) can tuna packed in water or oil, undrained
1 cup buttered bread crumbs or crushed plain potato chips
8 ounces packaged wide noodles, cooked al dente
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Lightly grease a glass casserole dish.
In a large saucepan, saute onion and celery
in the butter until vegetables
are barely soft, but not mushy.
Add mushroom soup, water, and peas.
Bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve soup.
When it begins to boil, turn off heat
and gently fold in tuna with liquid.
Add cooked pasta noodles and toss to coat with sauce.
Pour into prepared casserole and top
with bread crumbs or potato chips.
Bake 30 to 40 minutes until heated
through and topping is lightly browned.
