Sunday night and don't want to cook? Here's the classic meal everyone had growing up; thank you 1950's can cooking culture! Normally this is cooked in a casserole dish but I find my 12" cast iron does just as well. Many recipes call for frozen peas or carrots; I find these are just too mushy and bland. Instead make your meal a little classier, and healthier, by adding fresh produce. TimePrep time: 15 min Cook time: 30 min Total time: 45 min ServingsYield: 4 servings Ingredients- 1 (6.4 oz.) Pouch or 2 (2.6 oz.) Pouches or 2 (5 oz.) Cans (if using cans, drained) Chunk Light Tuna in Water
- 1 Cup Diced celery
- 1⁄2 Cup Whole milk
- 4 Oz. (about 2-1⁄2 cups) Egg noodles

Instructions- Preheat oven to 375°F.
