I was looking for a quick tasty easy meal with tuna and this fit the bill. Did add some garlic powder and pepper and dried onions because I like a lot of flavor. Used Healthy cream of chicken soup as that was all I had on hand and used whole wheat pasta noodles. Hubby really loved it too. No leftovers at our house!

Very good one pot meal! Added garlic powder, freshly ground pepper and another can of cream of celery (98% fat free) to make it creamier . Also when boiling the pasta added some salt to the water. Turned out perfect and had some for lunch the next day!

This recipe is so simple and it tastes great. I used 3 cups of frozen peas. And I added 1 carrot, grated, but at the end. I used only cheddar cheese. Thanks Michelle. Made for Zaar Star Game

This gets 5 stars for ease of preparation, but 3 stars for taste. I used macaroni, cream of mushroom instead of cream of celery (personal preference), canned veggies, no thyme or dill weed (just salt & pepper). While the flavors were all there, the sauce dried up considerably by the time we went back for seconds, and the dish was too dry to keep for leftovers. I might make this again, and add some buttermilk or half & half to juicen it up a bit. Not a bad recipe, but it needs some tweaking.

Yet another skillet meal that fit the bill! It was so easy to throw together and easy on the budget as well. I followed the recipe exactly except that I used cream of mushroom soup because I couldn't find creme of celery, and I would have cut down or omitted the dill if I were making for just myself. Purely a personal preference. Thanks for a winner!
