Tuna-Lima Bake

This is good and easy. too

  • 1 can solid-pack tuna fish, coarsely flaked
  • 1 can cream of celery or cream of chicken soup (undiluted)
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 package frozen limas, thawed
  • 3 slices Kraft American cheese, cut in triangles
  • 3 slices toast, cut in triangles

Start heating oven to 375°F. Combine tuna, soup, water, and limas. Turn into 10 x 6 x 2 baking dish. Place cheese triangles on top of toast triangles, arrange in center of dish. Bake 45 minutes. Makes 3–4 servings.

I [Edith] made it in a deeper, round casserole. Tasted fine, but I had great trouble fitting the triangles in! (You need a little magic also, else how can you turn it into a 10 x 6 x 2 baking dish!)

Merits of this dish are that it is a whole meal (with salad and dessert) and that it can be kept warm indefinitely, and can cook by itself without last minute flurry.
