   Ok, this is slightly modified from several online recipes I found.    It's my first Tuna Noodle Casserole and it's looking very yummy.Â
Ingredients:
1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
2.5TB Butter
1 large can (12oz) tuny chunk, undrained
1Â can 98% fat free condensed cream of mushroom soup
1/2cup Mayonaise
1 cup milk
1 tsp marjoram
12oz Wide Egg Noodle
Instructions:
Cook wide egg noodles in water for 10 minutes (or until tender)
While the noodles are cooking, in a large skillet, melt the butter and saute the onion until tender.  Stir in Tuna, soup, Mayo, milk, and marjoram.  Heat until hot, but don't boil.
Mix drained noodles in with contents of skillet and place in 2qt casserole dish.
Bake in 350F oven for 25-30minutes or until hot and bubbly.
Remove and cool.
   Most people will also want to add 1 tsp black pepper, but ShadowCat-X prefers without.   It makes a wonderfull, if basic, dish.

So I just entered my recipe into the CalorieKing RecipeBook and discovered how many calories and how much fat is in a serving.. *ouch*
I think I need to start looking at reduced fat alternatives and reduced salt alternatives.

Have you tried it with miracle whip instead of mayo? [that might help a little of the fat content.]
