I made this recipe in the '70 & have lost it. I can remember some of the ingredients, but can't remember the proportions or baking time & temp. Sure would like some help. Thank you so much for your time. It had Tuna, Rice, Lemon Juice, Tobasco Sauce, Worchester Sauce, Frozen Peas & a White Sauce

TUNA CASSEROLE (1970's)

1 can tuna

1/2 pkg. noodles or 1 cup quick cooking rice

1 c. peas (optional)

1 can mushroom soup instead of white sauce

1 c. milk

1 Tbsp. lemon juice

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1 dash Tabasco

Boil the noodles in salted water for 13 minutes and drain. (If using rice, dump in the mixture)

Add tuna to the noodles in a buttered casserole.

Make a white sauce or use cream of mushroom soup with the cup of milk blended smoothly.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

WHITE SAUCE:

1/4 c. butter

1/4 c. unsifted flour

1/2 tsp. salt

1/8 tsp. pepper

2 c. milk

In a medium saucepan, slowly heat butter until just melted and golden, stirring all the while.

Remove from heat. Add flour, salt and pepper.

Stir until smooth. Add milk a small amount at a time, stirring after each addition.

Remove from heat and after simmering 3 minutes.

Makes 2 cups.

**Top with cheddar cheese if desire.

Serve warm
