Notation : On days when nothing "sounds good" or I am just too tired cook, this recipe is not really that original but it is our good ol' Plan B alternative for those nights.
List of Ingredients:
- 2 cans of tuna; drained of water or oil it was packed with
- 2 boxes of Kraft Spirals & Cheese
- 1-1/2 cups frozen peas or, if preferred, 12 oz can of peas; drained
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Preparation or Cooking Instructions:
Prepare the Spirals according to the instructions on the box. Take care not to overcook the noodles - the 7 to 8 minutes recommended cooking time seems to achieve the best results even when cooking 2 boxes worth.
If using frozen peas, add those while cooking the noodles. if using canned peas, place them in the bottom of the colander while draining water from the noodles.
Add cheese mix, milk, and butter as described on the box then stir in tuna and black pepper. Reheat slightly, if you prefer, then serve.
Servings: According to the side panel on the Spirals - 8; According to my family: 5.
Family Rating: 5 out 5 wanted seconds.
