Julia's Collections

When my mother passed away 20 years ago, my sisters and I had the not-so-fun job of going through her treasures. No one spoke for her recipe collections, so I grabbed them. You see, my mom was a fantastic cook. It seemed a shame to me to have those recipes go unclaimed! Well, here we are, 20 years later; and those recipes have rested in their special place on my closet shelf waiting to be tried . . . .

Is That Cheating? - Skillet Tuna Supreme

So here's a recipe I used to make quite often. Doug even recognized it as soon as he saw it! So here's the thing - I didn't have any soy sauce! I'm never without soy sauce. So I didn't have that, and then I didn't want to waste a whole lemon for a little zest. Other than that, I guess it's all there. Oh, and I only used one can of tuna - which was plenty. No tuna taste here - we like this one.

SKILLET TUNA SUPREME
2 tbsp. salad oil
1 green pepper in slices
2 tsp. soy sauce
1 tsp. ground lemon peel
2/3 cup chopped onion
1 can tomato soup
2-3 tbsp. brown sugar
3 tbsp. lemon juice
2 cans tuna
Cook onion & green pepper until tender in hot oil in skillet. Mix in tomato soup & next 4 ingredients. Bring to boil. Simmer 5 min. Mix in tuna. Heat thoroughly. Spoon over chow mein noodles.
