Or a really easy simple way......cook egg noodles or a box of macaroni........when it is cooked......drain and rinse....put in a casserole dish.........in microwave.......mix a can of cream of mushroom soup..one can of milk.....and the can of tuna......white tuna is best.......cause it is less fishy......mix with the pasta.....in casserole......on top of the mixture.......mix some bread crumbs.....already made bread crumbs and margarine.....and put on top of the casserole.......bake for around 20-30 minutes.....hope you enjoy it

TUNA CASSEROLE

8 oz. egg noodles
1 10-oz. pkg. Frozen peas
1 8-oz. can cream of mushroom soup
1 cup milk
1 12-1/2-oz. can tuna, drained
1/2 cup plain or seasoned breadcrumbs tossed with
3 Tbsp. melted butter
-or
1/2 cup crushed Ritz crackers tossed with 3 Tbps. melted butter or margarine

Heat the oven to 375 degrees with the rack in the center position. Grease or spray non-stick vegetable cooking spray on 1 medium to large ovenproof baking dish, or two smaller dishes.

Cook the noodles according to the directions on the package, but shorten the cooking time by 2 minutes. Drain the noodles and combine with the peas, soup and milk. Mash the tuna with a fork to break it up and add it to the noodles. Mix gently and spoon into prepared pan.

Sprinkle the crumbs over the top and bake for 35 minutes, until hot.
Variations: Add salt (taste first, as soup may be salted enough); freshly grated black pepper; white pepper; snipped fresh herbs, such as tarragon, or dried herbs. Also, if you're not an avid fan of bread crumbs, 2 cups may be too much. Toss 1/2 to 3/4 cups with 1 tablespoon melted butter or margarine for a light sprinkling.

Here's where I got these:

There are many more there.

The one thing to remember when cooking pasta is to make sure you use a large pot - so there is plenty of water.

Look these over and see if they might be what you are looking for.

If you have any problems don't be afraid to either come back here for help or email me.

Here is a really easy tuna casserole type dish.....

1 Pkg Kraft Macaroni n Cheese
1 can Tuna (drained)
1 small can early peas (drained)

Make the mac-n-cheese according to directions and then dump in drained tuna and drained peas.

I do the same as ripleys mom but no peas, and add pimentos and 1 can cream of mushroom or cream of celery soup top with grated cheese and brown it in the oven. I also add a little curry powder sometimes
