Elouises' Tuna Casserole- No Noodles

"My "other mother", Elouise Stone, gave me this recipe when I was a starving college student. Now after 30+ years, my kids and grandkids are keeping the tradition alive! Simple, satisfying, and inexpensive. I use either plain or vinegar flavored thin potato chips."

  1. My DH doesn't care for tuna noodle casserole and when I told him he was eating tuna in this dish he was surprised. I would make this again for a week-night supper - it is all the things Kizzikate said - simple, satisfying and inexpensive. I might try it with a 1/2 to 1 cup frozen peas next time. Thank-you for sharing!
     
  2. This is the casserole my grandmother made for me growing up. So glad I found it here online. I absolutely love the easy and simple delicious casserole.
     
  3. I grew up eating this but we added a small can of peas and folded them in at the end carefully. Also added a half a can of creamer or heavy cream. Love this!
     
  4. This was good, although a bit salty. I think it would be better using low-sodium soup and no-salt potato chips. Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders.
