Answer 2

You mean you have never heard of the classic tuna and noodle casserole? If not, boil some noodles until they are just tender and not mushy. Add a can of cream of mushroom soup, diluted with a half can of milk. Add the tuna. Mix all ingredients together and put in casserole. I like to toss in a handfull of cubed or shredded cheese. Top with crushed potato chips or canned french-fried onions. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Bon Appetit!

Tuna a la king--in a white sauce (using canned tuna). Serve over biscuits or just over toast, it's pretty good.

2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp flour
1 chicken bouillon cube
1 cup milk
1 cup water
1/2 c frozen peas
1/2 c sliced mushrooms (if desired)
1 can tuna
Salt/pepper

Melt the butter in a saucepan, add the flour, bouillon cube, and mushrooms if using--stir over med heat for 2 or 3 minutes. Remove pan from heat and stir in broth and milk. If the sauce is too thick, add more milk as needed. Return to heat and bring to low boil, until sauce thickens. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add frozen peas and continue to cook on med-low until the peas are cooked. Finally, dump in your can of (drained) tuna and stir until the chunks are well broken up and blended into the sauce. Serve over biscuits, toast, English muffins, etc.
