tuna casserole

This was my great-grandmother's recipe. My apologies on the measurements. I don't measure stuff too often and have "guestimated" on the amounts. (I'm sure most of you know how to make gravy/rue anyhow.) This dish goes well with pinto beans and cornbread or with any green vegetable. My kids liked this when they were young. Enjoy!!
