Here are two recipes from one of my cookbooks. One for Mac & cheese, and one for the cheese sauce. Just add a can or two of tuna to the mac and cheese before putting it in the oven. It's great!!



Recipe Number 153
Macaroni and Cheese
Although I am classifying this as a side dish, it is also considered by many, including myself, as a meatless entree. It is easy to prepare, and if you use the cheese sauce below it is delicious.
Ingredients:
16 ounce box elbow macaroni
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
cheese sauce (Recipe #239)
Preparation:
Boil large pot of salted water. Stir in the macaroni, and continue to stir until a rolling boil is obtained. This will keep the macaroni from sticking to the bottom of the pot. When the macaroni is done, drain and rinse.
Pour the macaroni into a baking pan or dutch oven and stir in the butter, coating the macaroni thoroughly.
Prepare the cheese sauce, pour over the macaroni and mix. Bake in a 350ºF oven for 30 minutes, or until the cheese just begins to brown around the edges of the pan.
Serving Suggestions:
Serves 4 as an entree. Serves 6 as a side dish. Serve with steamed vegetables (Recipe #152). Serve as a side dish with the Burgers Without Buns (Recipe #20
and Recipe #26).

Recipe Number 239
Cheese Sauce
This is the smoothest cheese sauce ever! It can be used in macaroni and cheese (Recipe #153) or for fondue. It’s also great for Welsh rarebit or poured over steamed broccoli and cauliflower.
Ingredients:
white butter roux (Recipe #233)
1 pound sharp cheddar or Colby cheese, shredded
2 to 3 cups milk, (buttermilk or regular)
dash salt
Preparation:
To the roux, add 1 cup of milk or buttermilk and bring mixture to just below the boiling point, stirring constantly. At no time allow the sauce to boil. Using a hand mixer at medium speed, gradually begin to add the cheese. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a little milk Continue this procedure until all of the cheese is incorporated and the sauce is thick.
Yield: Approximately 4 cups

Get some pasta sauce from tescos - you know the packet stuff. Get some noodles. Cook the noodles first, then in a saucepan fry make a white sauce add the tuna, sauce and add some parsley and any other herbs you like. Then put noodls into a baking dish, tuna mix on top then grate some cheese. Put in oven for a few minutes and you are done. Takes very little time to prepare and less to eat! Enjoy!!

Tuna Melt
Mix drained albacore tuna with 2 tablespoons mayo, 1 tablespoon each minced celery and onion, celery salt and pepper to taste. Butter bread, and put face down onto a hot pan, pile the tuna on top, top with a slice of Swiss cheese and cover with the other side of the buttered bread. Cover the pan and fry until brown on both sides.

Another Answers person puts cayenne pepper in this, that sounds tasty, too.

Use Tuna Helper by Betty Crocker.

If you don't have time to go to the store, cook up a macaroni and cheese, add your tuna, a can of mushrooms (or cream of mushroom soup -- not diluted), some frozen peas, some onion powder, salt, pepper, and a dash of curry powder. Some garlic bread and a salad --- viola!

If you want to go cold (it's hot as blue blazes here in GA), make tuna salad. Hard boil eggs (you can use up to a dozen if you have 2 cans of tuna 6 oz each). Chop eggs, mix in tuna, at least 1 heaping tablespoon of mayo, dill pickle relish, celery, salt and pepper to taste, one or two teaspoons of dijon mustard (gives extra zing).

If you need extra volume, prepare macaroni and add the tuna mixture to the macaroni. You may need to add extra mayo. Or, if you have a mixed salad, you can add the tuna to it and add feta cheese and olives. Viola --- you have a Greek tuna salad.

Good luck.

For dinner I can't help you but I can help you make a great tuna sandwich. Mix some chopped onion, sweet pickles and a little bit of pepper into the tuna. Add enough mayonnaise to mix well. Toast the bread or bun. Add tomato, lettuce and cheese to the sandwich and enjoy!

I like tuna casserole. You cook a cup of elbow macaroni (takes around 15 min). Then add cream of mushroom soup (1 can), tuna (1 can, drained), 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 cup of some veggie like corn (I use corn or peas) and then some minced onions for flavor (I also add garlic salt). You cook that for another 5 min and you're done. I usually eat it with garlic toast.

Cook macaroni or some other pasta....Tuna, plus celery chopped, plus peas (sweet), if any, plus tomato slices, plus onion, if you like onion, salt, pepper, etc.. Mix all ingredients together. Now, either put in frig to cool a a salad, or put all of it into a baking dish, sprinkle bread crumbs and cheese on top, bake at 350 for 40 minutes.

Boil a load of spuds and make mash.
Grate a good chunk of cheese and mix in with the mashed spuds.
Grate an onion and add that too. Then add your drained tin of tuna.
Mix well then put it all in an oven-proof dish and bake for about 45 minutes at 190 degrees.
Sounds plain and simple, but it's very satisfying and more-ish.
I like mine as it is with lots of salt and tomato sauce.
