Tuna Cassrole #1

2 cans chunk light tuna in oil (more flavorful than albacore)
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
1 soup can of milk (10 oz.)
1 lb cooked noodles - this inspired debate - egg noodles, elbows or farfalle
1 stalk finely chopped celery
1/2 finely chopped onion
1 clove garlic, pressed.
4 slices of cheese (swiss or cheddar) broken into small bits
breadcrumbs or 1/2 stack crushed Ritz cracker
2-4 TBS parmesian (aka sprinkle) cheese

mix all the ingredients except the breadcrumbs and parmesian in a 3-4 qt pyrex casserole dish
bake at 400 for 20 minutes or until bubbly.
mix the breadcrumbs and the parmesian, and sprinkle on top.
cook for 5 more minutes

season to taste with your choice of salt, crazy janes, Mrs. Dash, pepper.

Jamie observed that it needed more seasoning - "something is missing"
agreed. He wanted bow ties. eck.

May have a little too much milk. 1 cup (8 oz) instead of 10.
The flavor is not quite what my mom made, which I loved. onto #2
