I loved this simple comfort dish! Using whole wheat noodles and subbing sugar snap peas for the green beans, it went together quickly and filled up my dieter's plate without any guilt. I used 1 can of tuna for half the recipe and it served 2 perfectly. It baked up fast - 10 minutes and the topping was brown. Thanks for sharing this winner!

I was looking for ways to use up the many many green beans that I have been finding in my CSA box and thought this recipe would accomplish that quickly if I doubled it. So I did. It turned out ok. I used green bell peppers which kind of took over the dish. I also used 14oz cans of Amy's Mushroom soup and the mixture was very liquidy before I baked it, but turned out to be a fine consistency when it came out of the oven. I used whole wheat noodles and undercooked them by 3 minutes, but they still turned out mushy.
