Mom's tuna Noodle Cassarole
I must have had this for dinner 3 nights a week growing up. It is fast, a full meal, and makes great leftovers. I have kept the recipe as I originally got it, but when I make it I often add various other veggies to it I have listed as optional. I also leave out the tomatoes. I hate tomatoes.

Feeds 4-6
Number of things that get dirty- 1
baking pan (you can cheat and it barely gets dirty if you line it with a peice of parchment paper)
Ingredients
Side of salmon
1/3 - 1/2 C Your favourite salad dressing
1 C Corn flakes
plastic bag
- lay salmon out skin side down on parchment lined tray
- lightly smother (and rub in) with your favourite salad dressing (I love it with Garlic dressing, but Italian also works well.)
- put corn flakes into bag. Tie up the bag being careful to remove most of the air. Release your frustrations on the corn flakes. until they are bigger than bred crumbs but smaller than, well, cornflakes).
- sprinkle and packdpwn the cornflakes on top of the dressing
Bake uncovered at 350* for 20-30 minutes until the fish is flakey.
Tuna Patties
I usually double this recipe and it makes great sandwiches for lunch the next day.
Prep time- 5 minutes

Feeds 3

1 bowl
1 frying pan
one spatula
one fork
Ingredients
1 can of tuna
1/3 C of may0
1 egg
1/2 C of bread crumbs or almond flour
1/3 C frozen peas (canned will do but I prefer frozen. I actually put them in frozen and they maintain their shape)
sesame oil to fry (you can use any oil but I find sesame adds extra flavour)
Combine all ingredients
Heat sesame oil (just enough to cover the bottom of the pan. Replenish as necessary)
Form mixture into patties about 2.5 inches across
Cook in oil until brown about half way up
flip and cook other side.
drain on cooling rack on top of paper towel. If you do not have one, paper towel will do.
We like ours in pita with salad and ketchup.
