HARD TIMES CREAMED TUNA
Times were tough for my newly divorced mom in the 70's. I remember eating creamed tuna on toast with a green salad on the side at least weekly. It was one of my favorite meals, and I had no idea we were eating it out of necessity. Times aren't so tough now, but I still make this about once a month. It's great when you're in a hurry, or have limited supplies on hand. My kids love it too!

CREAMED TUNA ON TOAST -- WHAT??
I will admit, there is absolutely nothing about this recipe that made sense to me growing up, other than I really liked it. Mama made it often as a way to stretch a dollar. But, Mama also told us that you shouldn't drink milk with fish. So when I found out she used milk to make this for us, I had some moments of uncertainty ......

CREAM TUNA ON TOAST
My mom gave me this recipe. It is different from most of the cream tuna on toast recipes I have seen because it has lots of cheese.

A typical "White Trash" meal. One of my favorites. My family has been eating this for years...I have had some trouble getting my husband warmed up to this one though. Very filling and SO easy to make.
