Tuna Noodle Casserole

I crave tuna casserole about 4 times every year, I have no idea why, but randomly I need to have it!  Is there anything better or easier than placing all ingredients in one dish with literally no fuss?  I think not.  Well, maybe takeout.  This recipe is great, inexpensive, and simple.  For non tuna eaters replace with canned or shredded chicken.
Ingredients:

• 1 bag egg noodles
• 2 cans tuna
• 1 can cream of mushroom
• 6 oz plain Greek yogurt
• 1 cup milk
• 1 cup peas, frozen
• 1 cup cheddar cheese
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon ground mustard
• dash of garlic
• salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:  Pre heat oven to 350 degrees.  Boil noodles according to package directions.  In a large bow mix tuna, cream of mushroom, Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, milk, peas, and all seasonings.  When noodles are done mix into tuna mixture and pour into greased casserole dish.  Top with remaining cheese and bake for 20 minutes covered and 5 minutes uncovered.

Cookers Note:  This recipe if for a 9 x 13 baking dish however, I make it in a small casserole dish and freeze one for a later date.

Fast Tuna Melts

Don't know why I am posting this because I am pretty sure most everyone already knows how to make this dish.  Its an easy 15 minute dinner that is good and fast.  My husband is a fan of these and I usually have all the ingredients on hand.  It is nothing special, but having a simple low key dinner is a nice change of pace.

Ingredients:

• 2 cans tuna of your choice
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon mustard
• 1 tablespoon relish of your choice
• 2 slices cheese of your choice.  I usually use pepper jack
• salt and pepper to taste
• margarine
• 4 pieces bread

Directions:  In bowl mix tuna, mayonnaise, mustard, relish, and salt and pepper together.  Butter one side of all four pieces of bread.  Add mixture to two pieces of bread and add the cheese on top.  Place the left over pieces of bread on top butter facing outward.  Heat on skillet until cheese is melted and tuna is warm.  Serve with soup, salad, or chips.  You can also add plain coleslaw mix into mixture to add more texture.

Cookers Note: I love making these with Jalapeno Cheese Bagels. SOOO GOOD!!
