30-minute meal #2

Tuna Casserole

It's not top choice cuisine, but it's simple, cheap, and will keep you from starving to death.  And it tastes pretty good too.

You need:
2 cans of tuna (drained)
1/2 bag of wide noodles (I use the wheat ones)
1/2 family-sized bag of frozen mixed veggies
1 can cream of chicken soup (mushroom or celery work well also)
milk (enough to fill the soup can)
8-10 crackers, crumbled
seasoned salt
black pepper
paprika
garlic powder

Boil a large pot of water and add frozen veggies and noodles.  Bring to a boil again and let cook on high until the noodles are done.  Turn off the heat and drain the noodle/veggie mix.  Add in tuna, soup, and milk.  Combine and season to taste.  Pour the mixture into a microwave safe dish with a lid.  Spread evenly in dish and spread cracker crumbs on top.  Sprinkle paprika on the casserole and cook in microwave on high for 5 minutes.  Let rest for 5 minutes, then serve and enjoy.
