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.
