Never heard of it frozen -- I thought it was always canned!

I've heard that the frozen tuno is way yummier than the canned, but haven't been able to find it anywhere. boo.

I've only ever seen it frozen - it was in a wrapped roll (like you would find gimme lean or something) and I had noooo idea what to do with it!

tuno noodle casserole.

ingredients:
1 12oz. tube of tuno
2 cups cooked pasta,l preferably rotini
1 cup tofutti sour supreme
1 cup frozen peas
1/2 red bell pepper
1/3 cup onions, minced
1/2 cup cornbread stuffing
1/3 cup soy Parmesan
3 tbsp. earth balance margarine

instructions:
1.) preheat oven to 375 degrees. thaw tuno and break into chunks - do not mince. stir in until just combined: the pasta, 'sour cream', peas, pepper, and onion. pour this into an oiled 11 x 17-inch baking dish.

2.) melt the margarine and then mix in the cornbread stuffing and soy Parmesan. spread this topping over the dish, then cover with foil.

3.) bake for 20 minutes covered, then uncover for the final 10 minutes. you want the top to be crispy, but not dried out.

I made a Tuno-Noodle Casserole a couple weeks ago... and now I think I want it again, yum. :o) I have one tube of Tuno left in my freezer, given to me by a friend who travels far for it. I have yet to find any in my area. I used to find the canned Tuno all over, but I understand it's been discontinued. Boo hiss.

Anyhoo! Here's the recipe I use:

Ah, I should have mentioned that the casserole should be covered during the first half hour of baking time. The last 15 or 20 minutes uncovered will crunch up the crumb topping nicely. :o)
