Tuna Noodle Bake
How many times does the working woman run out the door in the morning and FORGET to lay out meat to unthaw for dinner?!
Uh....hopefully, I'm not the only one.
Sometimes, it is just simply I'm hungry for Tuna!
Do you have 'those' in your family who are not very fond of tuna? Here is a recipe that has a hint of chicken pot pie elements mixed with noodles and to 'them' the dreaded tuna.
Most likely, after the first bite, they will be ready to ask for seconds. No complaints from this house!
A nice toss salad and warm dinner roll or biscuit rounds out this simple fare.
2 cans albacore tuna (less 'fishy' taste)
2 jars chicken gravy
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can carrots
1/2 cup frozen peas
6 cups of cooked noodles (8-10 oz)
Salt and pepper to taste
4 Tbsp melted butter
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1 cup crushed potato chips
1 cup shredded chedder cheese
Preheat oven to 400 degree.
Cook noodles according to package with 1/2 tsp salt added to water. Drain and place in Pam sprayed glass casserole dish, toss with 2 Tbsp butter. Add tuna, gravy, soup, carrots, peas, salt and pepper and stir gently to mix.
Top noodle mixture with shredded cheddar cheese. Mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter with bread crumbs until dry and crumbly, then toss with the potato chips. Sprinkle bread crumb and potato chip mixture on top of cheese.
Bake in oven uncovered until bubbly. Approximately 20-30 minutes.
