As a child growing up I didn’t get anywhere near a stove if I could help it. I was a tomboy and as soon as my chores were done I was out the door and on a baseball diamond, soccer field, volleyball court, fishing, riding my bicycle all over God’s creation or involved in some other adventure. I was entirely too busy to hang around a kitchen except to do dishes or sweep the floor. Mom was ok with that as I was a whiz bang at cleaning and could do that with the best of them. I did however know how to fix popcorn because it was one of my absolute favorite foods.
I was married at a tender age and still did not know how to cook. Although this was not the very first meal I fixed it was my very first casserole. The first meal and the dessert for this casserole will come in another post.
Tuna & Potato Chip Casserole - 2 servings (increase ingredients for your family size)
1 can cream of mushroom soup
3/4 c. milk
A couple T. finely chopped onion ( I also like a dash or two of garlic pepper)
Salt and pepper to taste
3-4 c. crushed potato chips
1 (6 oz.) can tuna
Mix soup and milk, bring to boil.
Add onion, salt & pepper.
Butter or “Pam” a casserole dish
Alternate layers of chips and tuna.
Pour soup mixture over all and garnish top with chips.
Bake 25 minutes at 350 degrees.
Enjoy!

Well you are the best cleaner I know of...I think growing up we did spring cleaning several times a year.
As fort the tuna casserole, 'though I am sure it was delicious, that is one dish I have never been able to stomach. The only way I can eat tuna is on a toasted sandwich with miracle whip, pickles and onion and that took me a lot of years to work up to.
Did we eat tuna very often as kids, I can't remember?
Did you ever do anything with canned salmon?
We didn't have much tuna when you kids were small, none of you cared for it much so I didn't fix it, although I would buy a can once in a while and make tuna salad which I don't remember anyone eating but me.
I made salmon patties which none of you kids liked either. Some of you might like them now, give it a try sometime. Mom use to fix salmon patties with fried potatoes.
