Tuna Casserole
"For me, this defines comfort food. Grandma's house was a place where I could always find a stable home amidst the chaos of my parents' divorce. Of all her great food, this was always a favorite for me. Warm, delicious, and filling, this recipe is also cheap and easy to make! I made my most recent batch for just around $10! You can vary the amount of soup, tuna, and cooking time depending on your personal taste. I like mine lighter, so I only use 2 cans of the soup."

I use cream of celery soup. or I also go on to the online site that tells how to make the "Cream of " soups yourself... Saving even more money, I feed 8 adults a day, No it's not a group home, it's that ever since the Olection last year, We have all lost homes, jobs etc. so the Kids * grown) and grandbaby are here. These males who are picking up jobs as they can come home hungry and one "serving" of food just ins't going to filll up hungry men. I usually serve can peas with this as well. Oh, I add lemon to the mix. either the dry lemon powders our there or some lemon juice. Someting about lemon and fish, sets it right off ! -
