OODLES OF TUNA NOODLES!
Lord, I hate peas. Lord, I hate cream of ++ soups! I love tuna casserole though. I really don't want to see the calorie count on this - but it''s got healthy stuff in it too! Let me know what you think! For the egg noodles, use the kind you'd get in the deli - farm made or reams frozen - hearty heavy noodles....and feel free to reduce the hot pepper if you'd like - or skip it altogether, I like stuff hot! It takes 2 pans and a 6 qt casserole - but I think it's worth the dishes!
