Tuna Casserole

Due to current issues in my own life, I have been seriously craving some comfort food. I know some people go toward mac and cheese, cheesecake, or even pork and beans, but one of my go-to's on this is tuna casserole a la Grandmére's epic recipe.
Tuna Casserole


8 oz. uncooked noodles

14 oz. tunafish, drained

14 oz. sour cream

3/4 c. milk

1 small can of mushrooms, drained (or 1 c. sliced button mushrooms)

1 1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. black pepper, or to taste

1/2 c. Italian breadcrumbs

1/2 c. Parmesan cheese

4 tbsp. butter, melted

Preheat oven to 350* Fahrenheit. Cook noodles according to directions, and combine all ingredients but the breadcrumbs, cheese and butter in a casserole dish. Separately mix breadcrumbs, cheese and butter. Bake for 30 minutes, then add cheese and breadcrumb mixture to top; bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until golden.


I am sorry not to have pictures of this delicious phenom-nom-nom-enon.

Pickled Squash

I hated squash as a kid. Heck, I am picky about my consumption of any gourd to this day, except for pumpkin. However, my Grandma West had within her grasp the sole means I would eat squash happily. Delectable, bread-and-butter pickled squash. I completely forgot this stuff was squash. I remember making myself sick on them a time or two, even, before I recalled that they were, indeed, slices of stuff I normally shrunk away from. All that said, here's my Grandma West's pickled squash recipe. I hope you enjoy it. :) Pickled Squash 8c. sliced squash 4 onions, chopped 2 bell peppers, chopped ½ c. canning salt 3c. sugar 3c. vinegar 1 tsp. celery seed 1 tsp. mustard seed Put vegetables in sink and sprinkle salt over.

Hot Buttered Fluffy Pretzels

So, I am in serious passion with  Pinterest . Seriously. I get a multitude of awesome ideas from the website, and it is so helping me expand my horizons in the cooking field! I tried a recipe for soft pretzels last night, as a side for my shepherd's pie. I wasn't sure how they would come out, but I am blessed with a bundle of guinea pigs who enjoy it when I try new stuff. This recipe  is absolutely amazing.  I need to quadruple the recipe next time, though, because they disappeared FAST! Perfectly soft on the inside, with a light, slight crunch on the outside, it was exactly what I had been looking for in terms of a salted snack that was not crunchy. Check out the link for the recipe; it's a million times worth trying! - S.
