Tonight we made a comforting tuna noodle casserole - perfect to combat the dreary weather we've had. In it were some fresh peas from the market, that Dan shucked when he got home today, tuna and milk from the market, plus a can of cream of celery soup, cheese, and chips from the grocery store.
We used our usual recipe, but switched to a new type of noodle, based on both Carolyn & Lisa saying it makes the best tuna noodle casserole. Two Demibiczak women can't be wrong! Found in the kosher/Jewish foods section, Mrs. Weiss' Kluski Enriched Egg Noodles lived up to their reputation. They also bulk up a lot - an 8 oz bag is plenty for a big casserole, though I went for 12 oz and nearly overflowed the dish.
Dan skipped lunch today, so despite the hearty dinner, he was still hungry. When we're not sure what to eat, or we think dinner might not be filling enough, our joke has become 'We can always have popcorn', though we rarely actually do.
Tonight, my ravenous husband needed his popcorn, so I made up a big batch with butter and (a bit too much) salt. I just pray the kernels don't get stuck in my teeth and embarrass me at the dentist tomorrow morning.
