Ingredients

1 pkg egg noodles, cooked & drained (12 oz)
2 can(s) cream of mushroom soup, undiluted (10.5 oz each)
1 pkg shredded cheddar (8 oz)
1/2 medium onion, diced
2 can(s) tuna, packed in water, drained (5 oz each)
1 sleeve Ritz crackers or similar
1 stick margarine, melted
1 c mayonnaise
1/2 pkg frozen mixed corn/peas/carrots (12 oz package)
3-4 dash(es) hot sauce
1 jar(s) pimentos (2 oz)
1 c ricotta cheese (optional)
3/4 c water

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix in large bowl tuna, soup, onion, mayo, frozen veggies, hot sauce, pimento, ricotta, water, and half a bag of shredded cheddar.
2. Next fold in cooked egg noodles.
3. Then spread the mixture in a 9x13 pan sprayed with non-stick spray.
4. Cover with remaining cheese.
5. Mix melted margarine and crushed crackers until well coated. Sprinkle over casserole.
6. Bake until golden and bubbly.
7. HINT: I have also used pepper jack cheese in this instead of the cheddar and it's great if you like spice. I have had the suggestion of adding another can of tuna to this because with all the other flavors the tuna flavor is not very strong. To each his own.

KING'S HAWAIIAN TUNA MELT SUPREME

King's Hawaiian Tuna Melt Supreme image

As far as tuna melts go, this one is pretty amazing. It may be a bit messy, but it's very tasty. The base of the sandwich is sweet Hawaiian bread cut into thick slices and buttered. We liked the tuna salad itself - it has many textures and flavors. When it cooks, the melted cheese holds everything in. This seems very fancy,...

5. Next, the sliced tomato.
6. Then the tuna salad.
7. Top the tuna with another slice of cheese.
8. Then top with the second slice of bread. Butter both sides of bread generously.
9. Place in a skillet on medium heat.
10. Grill (fry) until golden brown.
11. Serve with sweet potato fries or chips and pickle slices.
12. (Use any leftover sliced, round sweet Hawaiian bread to make the best french toast you've ever had the next morning!)

CREAMY AND CRUNCHY TUNA SALAD SUPREME

Creamy and Crunchy Tuna Salad Supreme image

This tuna salad is made special with the addition of cream cheese and chopped raw carrots. Red peppers make it pretty and one or two other vegetables, fruits or nuts keep it changing and interesting. I developed this recipe after I tasted cream cheese in a salmon salad sandwich at a funeral lunch in Canada many years ago. Add baby spinach or lettuce leaves, and serve on your favorite bread or as a wrap in a tortilla.
