Creamed Tuna on Buttered Toast
Absolutely delicious! I made this on 17 Jan 2017, very easy, very easy to tailor based on your preferences. And I make this often! The milk sauce is perfect. If making this for more than 2 people (even though listed as 4 servings) I would double this. Highly recommended. Link to the Shortcut is listed in the Notes section.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup butter
- ¼ cup all purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- 1 can tuna, drained, or 1 cup fresh cooked tuna, (185 g / 7 oz), Shortcut
- 1 cup frozen peas, thawed, or peas and carrots, or mixed veggies
- salt and pepper, to taste
- bread, for toasting
- butter, for the toast, as needed
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a saucepan, then whisk in the flour, then whisk in the milk, whisk constantly to prevent lumps and stir until creamy. Add the tuna, peas, and salt and pepper to your taste and warm through.
- As the sauce is warming, toast your bread, figuring 1-2 slices per serving. I went with 4 slices of toast for me in this photo.
- When the bread is toasted and buttered, spoon the sauce over the toast and serve.
Notes
Low cost per serving.
Shortcut: Tuna.
Variants: 1. Add a couple of fried eggs sunny side up on top of each serving. 2. Chop 2 hard boiled eggs and mix those in when you add the tuna.
