Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni
2 teaspoons olive oil
5 fresh mushrooms
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon chili powder
1 ½ teaspoons dried oregano
¼ cup Verdelho wine
½ (13.5 ounce) can spinach, drained
¾ cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1 (12 ounce) can tuna, drained
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
½ cup milk
4 slices bread, toasted

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add macaroni, and cook until tender, about 8 minutes. Drain.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms, and saute until tender. Season with paprika, chili powder, and oregano. Pour in the wine, and let simmer for 5 minutes.
Stir in the spinach, and simmer until heated through. Stir the spinach mixture into the drained macaroni. Mix in the tuna. Combine the condensed soup and milk; stir into the mixture until evenly coated. Transfer to a 9x13 inch baking dish. Crumble toasted bread over the top.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until the top is crispy and browned.
