KITTENCAL'S TUNA SALAD SANDWICHES

Kittencal's Tuna Salad Sandwiches image

This is a simple recipe but big on flavor and it even tastes better if left in the fridge a few hours to blend the flavors so I suggest to do that --- it's wonderful with a slice of tomato on top of the tuna and served between two thick slices of toasted whole grain bread or in a pita bread or served on a plate on top of a bed of lettuce --- I sometimes add in some chopped small sweet gherkin pickles or yum yum pickles also --- feel free to add in some cooked macaroni pasta and serve on a plate --- please only fresh lemon juice for this bottled is just not the same, I have left the mustard powder and Tabasco as optional I most always add it in it takes this salad to another level :)

Trust me you will be craving this often once you try it! --- you may use regular white salt but the seasoned salt is better, also use as much cheese and tomato slices as desired, I sometimes add in some chopped sweet yum yum pickles to the tuna filling too --- low-fat mayonnaise and cheese may be used :)

KITTENCAL'S EASY TUNA OR CHICKEN NOODLE CASSEROLE

Kittencal's Easy Tuna or Chicken Noodle Casserole image

This is a delicious casserole that can be made using either tuna or 1-1/2 cups or more of cooked cubed chicken or even cooked turkey --- for a thinner sauce use 1 cup of milk or half and half instead of 3/4 cup, prep time includes boiling the egg noodles, if you are not a garlic-lover then you may omit the garlic powder and to zing the flavor up even more add in 1-1/2 tablespoons of lemon juice

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

6 ounces egg noodles
2 tablespoons butter
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
1/2-1 teaspoon garlic powder (or to taste, I use 1 teaspoon)
3 -4 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese (optional)
3/4 cup milk (or can use half-and-half cream)
1/2 cup sour cream (can increase to to 3/4 cup)
1/4-1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt (or to taste, or use white salt)
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (or to taste)
1 small onion, finely chopped (can use 2 green onions)
1/4 cup pimiento, chopped
1 small green bell pepper, finely chopped
1 large celery rib, diced
1 (6 1/2 ounce) can tuna, drained and flaked (can add another 3 ounces for a more meatier casserole if desired, or use cooked chicken or turkey)
12 -15 butter flavored crackers, broken in pieces (such as Ritz Crackers)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Grease a 2-quart casserole dish.
Cook the egg noodles in boiling salted water; drain then toss with 2 tablespoons butter.
In a large saucepan, mix the undiluted mushroom soup, garlic powder, Parmesan cheese (if using) milk or half and half, sour cream, salt, pepper, chopped onion, pimiento, bell pepper and celery; cook over low heat, stirring frequently for 15 minutes.
Add in the tuna or chicken; mix to combine.
Combine the mixture with the cooked egg noodles.
Transfer to prepared greased baking dish.
Sprinkle top with the broken Ritz crackers.
Bake for about 25 minutes.

Tips:

Use a high-quality tuna. Look for tuna that is packed in water or olive oil and is free of additives.
Flake the tuna with a fork before adding it to the sandwich. This will help to ensure that the tuna is evenly distributed.
Use a sturdy bread that can hold up to the tuna mixture. A hearty whole wheat or sourdough bread is a good choice.
Add your favorite toppings to the sandwich. Some popular options include cheese, tomatoes, onions, and pickles.
Use the sandwich immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later. The sandwich can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days.
