Looking for an easy pre- Thanksgiving dinner? How about some good, old-fashioned comfort food? This recipe- straight from the 1950's is what many of us grew up eating. It is still delicious and comforting and very easy to make. You actually can make it with canned chicken or even leftover chicken or turkey as well. But there is a rule you must know. You ALWAYS serve it with petite peas. ALWAYS. It's especially delicious on buttered and toasted homemade bread or- shown here- on Costco's torta bread, toasted and generously buttered. Hmmmm! Just thinking about it is comforting.
Creamed Tuna on Toast
Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large saucepan. Blend in 1/4 cup flour, salt, and pepper. Add 2 cup milk all at once and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and bubbles. Add 2 cans well rinsed and drained tuna. Serve over buttered toast. Always serve with young peas.

I too love this! I usually put the peas right in with the creamed mixture - with the petite peas - I just put them in a collander and run hot water on them and then throw them in the mixture! Thanks for remindeing me of this delicious meal!
