Different than ALL of the other tuna casseroles out there. An extreme favorite of mine from childhood. You are supposed to use fresh or frozen green peas, but I use canned. You are supposed to use 2% milk, but I use whole. Half the time I make it without the crispy topping. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine |
2 tablespoons onions, chopped |
1 cup green peas |
10 3/4 ounces cream of mushroom soup |
5 ounces kraft pimento spread |
1/2 cup 2% low-fat milk |
6 1/2 ounces tuna in water, drained |
4 ounces egg noodles, cooked and drained |
1/4 cup black olives, chopped |
1 cup crushed potato chips or 1 cup corn flakes |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. 2. In medium saucepan, melt butter, saute onion until tender. 3. Add soup, cheese spread, tuna, milk; heat, stirring constantly, until cheese is melted. 4. Add noodles, peas, and olives; mix well. 5. Spoon mixture into greased 2-qt. casserole dish. 6. Sprinkle with potato chips or cornflakes. 7. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes. |
