Submitted by pixelbrain

"My mom gave me this recipe. It is different from most of the cream tuna on toast recipes I have seen because it has lots of cheese."

• 2 (6 ounce) cans tuna
• 2 tablespoons real butter

• 1 cup shredded cheese
• 1⁄4 teaspoon celery salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon onion powder
• 8 slices bread
• 1⁄2 cup peas

Thanks for this recipe. We use to eat this when I was a kid, and it's exactly as I remember. mmm...

This was very tasty, looked better and wasn't as mushy as the one other time we tried it (using a different recipe). I used frozen peas(first placing them in a colander under running water to defrost a little), adding them during the last few minutes of cooking time.
