Campbell's 98% Fat Free Cream of Mushroom Soup
1 6-oz. can tuna packed in water |
6 oz. dry
pasta, cooked or 4 cups cooked pasta Seasonings are an option |
Cook pasta and mix with cooked pasta and
tuna. Put into casserole or loaf pan which has been
sprayed with a no-stick product.
Bake about 45 min. at 350 degrees.
Hints: I used the soup mentioned
above, but I see (for the same points)
I could have used Campbell's "Healthy Request" Cream of
Mushroom which has less sodium, if you need to watch
that. Also, frozen peas could have been added to make
it more colorful (but with added points).
I used a glass loaf pan which made it easy to divide into 4 equal
servings. Enjoy!
