One thing I enjoy making is comfort food. I remember growing up I loved when my mom made tuna noodle casserole. It is good and easy to prepare.
First drain two cans of Albacore tuna and flake it into a 9×13 baking dish.
In a medium bowl add a can of Cream of Broccoli, a can of Broccoli cheese and some crushed potato chips.
Add cooked pasta on top of tuna in dish. Then pour mixture on top of noodles.
Use a fork to stir mixture evenly. Then add some shredded cheese and a layer of crushed potato chips.
Cover with foil and bake at 350° for about 25-30 minutes until the cheese on top is melted and golden.
What makes me happy is that my kids claim they don’t like seafood but will eat tuna sandwiches and tuna noodle casserole. On school nights when I am preparing dinner for the whole family, these big budget friendly meals come in real handy!

This was always a favorite dinner when my mom made it growing up. Thanks for the recipe, I’ll bookmark it for my family.

YIKES!!! Sodium overload. Sorry, dear, there’s enough salt in that recipe to kill a few thousand weeds.
Making your own cream sauce is not at all difficult, and low sodium saltines can be used instead of potato chips.
