Mom's creamed tuna on toast was her go-to meal on a busy day. Boil a couple of eggs, open a few cans, toast some bread and, "Viola!" dinner is served. To me, it's comfort food that I enjoy to this day. I think of Mom every time I make it.

How To Make mom's creamed tuna

  • Step 1
    In a medium saucepan or skillet, over medium heat, stir together soup and milk; heat until it simmers. (Density of condensed soups vary; add the amount of milk that seems appropriate.)
  • Step 2
    Add tuna, stirring gently to combine; continue heating until mixture is simmering hot.
  • Step 3
    Fold chopped eggs into tuna mixture; continue heating for about 20 to 30 seconds, enough to heat the egg.
  • Step 4
    Remove from heat; serve hot over toast, English muffins, noodle or rice. Garnish as desired. Store leftover creamed tuna in airtight container in refrigerator. Reheat on stovetop or in microwave.
