Dad's Not Home Tuna Casserole by Mom image

When Dad had to work at night Mom always made her famous tuna casserole for us. Certainly not the healthiest of meals but it brings back a lot of memories. Times were tough, money was tight back then. 1 can of tuna, some soup, a few vegies and some potato chips made a warm and belly filling supper for us. I still make this...

I've been making this recipe for years and it's always a favorite. I love the creamy sauce and the tuna and noodles are a great combination. I also like to add a bit of diced celery and onion to the sauce for extra flavor.

I made this recipe last night and it was a huge success! My husband and kids loved it. The only change I made was to add a bit more cheese to the sauce. I will definitely be making this again.
