  1. Coralie, This sounds like such an easy yummy comfort food recipe! I am trying to eat what I have in my freezer and pantry. I have tuna and chowmein noodles. I'll make this one.

  2. I just love these vintage recipes that you post, they just scream comfort food to me.

    I was going to the market today, because they have my albacore on sale — buy one 4-pack, get another free. I wanted to make a some kind of tuna casserole, since we're on a strict budget these days and this sounds like it will fit the bill, the grocery bill that is, lol.

  4. I love your vintage recipes. It's hard to believe but this was a very popular recipe in the 50's. Folks loved the chow mein noodles that were added to the tuna casserole. Thanks for the memory, Coralie. Have a great Foodie Friday.

  6. I'm sure some of these recipes must still be in my mom's recipe file. I remember this one.

  7. I have fixed this recipe many, many times, and just reading about it brought back so many warm memories. In addition to nourishing the body, this is what food is all about--making memories.

  8. Confession: I grew up eating this (in 1980's!). We heated it on the stove instead of baking it, but it's the same idea. I think my mother got it from an older neighbor when she was in college or graduate school.

    It's the least-appetizing meal I've ever seen--gray slop with chunks in it--but I still love it.
