Tuna-Macaroni Casserole
(4 servings)

1 (6 oz) can of tuna, drain well and flake
1 small onion, chopped
1 (7.3 oz) box White Cheddar macaroni and cheese
1 cup milk, more if needed
3 T margarine
1/2 cup peas (optional - I just use leftovers)
shredded White Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
crushed potato chips (optional)

Lightly grease 1-1/2 qt casserole dish and set aside.  Cook and drain macaroni.  Saute onion in 2 T margarine until translucent/tender.  Add tuna and heat through.  Add cheese packet, milk, and remaining 1 T margarine; stir until cheese dissolves.  Add macaroni and peas to tuna mixture and blend well.  Pour into casserole dish and top with shredded cheese and crushed chips.  Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Notes:  As a matter of personal preference, the yellow mac and cheese doesn't work as well for this recipe.

Canned chicken may be substituted for the tuna.
