7 layer salad is easy:
1 head lettuce
6-8 hard-boiled eggs
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped green peppers
1 (10 ounce) package frozen peas, thawed
3/4 lb bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
1 (1 ounce) package shredded cheese (Cheddar or Monterrey jack)
Layer the ingredients in a large bowl in the order given. Mix the dressing (recipe follows) and spread over the salad to the edge of the bowl. Salad can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours or eaten immediately. Before serving, blend dressing and salad layers if desired.
DRESSING:
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tsp. vinegar
1/4 C. sugar or artificial sweetener
That would be a good side dish for ';Chicken in Pup Tents.';
For each serving, place a boneless, skinless chicken breast in the center of a square of aluminum foil. Season the chicken with one of the following: barbecue sauce, teryiaki sauce, lemon pepper, or your favorite chicken dry rub.
Place a peeled and quartered potato around the chicken, along with a peeled and sliced carrot, a few red or green pepper slices, and a few halved mushrooms. Season the veggies with salt and pepper and dot with margarine.
Fold up the foil to form a tight package, and bake at 350 degrees until chicken is done and veggies are tender -- 25 to 35 minutes average, depending on the thickness of the chicken breast.
And for dessert, how about a spectacular-looking strawberry trifle?
Place a layer of store-bought angel food cake cubes or pound cake in a large glass bowl. Top with a layer of sweetened sliced strawberries, and spread a layer of Cool-whip over the berries. Repeat until the bowl is full and garnish with some mint leaves and whole berries, if desired.
There ya have it -- a simple, but delicious meal that can be put together in under an hour.ERGENT, quick and easy recipes?

That may have been a Masaman Curry. Asian\Farmer's markets have many different curry powders and pastes. Some can bee too hot or too salty so it takes a little trial %26amp; error to learn what brands\types you like and how to work with them. It's just a matter of layering flavors.

my favourite is green curry.
I like chicken korma
My sister used to make a quick shrimp curry but I don't know why you couldn't just use chicken instead. Make some rice to put the sauce over. Precook the chicken (or shrimp), I'd just use the microwave for the chicken. Take a can of cream of chicken soup and add curry powder to taste (like a teaspoon or so) and mix with a 2/3 can of milk. Heat, mix with the chicken and pour over the rice. Doesn't get easier!

Cooking for one, what are some quick and easy recipes?
my boyfriend and I are on opposite schedules so i basically have to fend for myself at night. I try no to do frozen foods, but to be honest they don't taste the best and aren't healthy for the most part. Other than salads , is there anything that is good for one person. I am tired of pasta and have had it any which way you can! So any suggestions (books, websites, etc) would be appreciated! Thank youCooking for one, what are some quick and easy recipes?
Well, there are a good bunch of recipes for one or two people, but this is one of my favorites. You can adjust the heat and spice depending on your likes, but I bet you will enjoy it.
1. Sweat diced onion and garlic in a bit of olive oil until translucent
2. Add curry powder, paprika, and chili powder (amounts depend on your taste)
3. Add several tablespoons of tomato sauce
3. Dice skinless, boneless chicken breast and add to the pan
4. Add about a quarter-cup of water and let the mixture stew until chicken is cooked through
5. Serve over a bowl of rice and enjoy
The final product comes out tasting like an Indian curry dish. It is always my go-to meal when I am home alone and I am sure you will enjoy it.
Best of luck,
ChrisCooking for one, what are some quick and easy recipes?
My boyfriend and I did the same thing for a while and it wasn't easy. Sometimes we would cook a meal for two (or more) and freeze/refrigerate the rest.
I got pretty good at making things with wraps. Either sandwich foods, chicken salad, quesadillas, fajitas, burritos, breakfast burritos... you name it, I put it in a wrap. :)
Stir fries are always easy, healthy meals.
Most meals that you usually make can be made for one as long as you make the right preparations. When you buy meat (including ground meat!), separate it into single servings before freezing. I've made lasagna for one by breaking up the noodles and baking it in a smaller dish.
Get creative!
Baked potatoes are always good. Easy to make just one.
Steak pan grilled.
any frozen vegetable steamed in the microwave. Just put 1/2 cup veggies in a glass dish with a lid, add 2 T. water, put the lid on and steam for about 4 min. Add salt and butter.
Fry one piece of chicken and make 1/2 cup gravy using 1 T. of the meat drippings, 1 T. flour and 1/2 cup milk. Boil one potato and mash it and add salt, butter and a little milk.
Buy the canned salmon which comes in the little 3oz. cans. Drain the liquid off and mix enough mayo in it to hold it together and make patties and pan fry.
Boil one potato, when done, cut in cubes and fry in butter until brown and crispy on the outside.
Grilled cheese sandwich and salad.
One can of cream of chicken soup and 1/2 can of milk. Stir and heat. Pour over 2 slices of toast.
Scrambled eggs with cooked crumbled sausage added to it. Toast and jelly.

easiest great pot roast.
1 roast....any kind will do from chuck to bottom round....whatever cut you like. Will also work with pork roast.
put a couple of tablespoons of oil in a frying pan big enough to hold the roast. Turn heat on high and let pan get hot.
Sprinkle roast with kosher salt and garlic pepper both sides.
Put roast in the pan to brown. Let it sit on each side 5 or 7 minutes or until it is seared.
Put 1/2 can of beef broth in crock pot with some dried onions (use chicken broth with pork) Soup sized can of broth.
Put roast in crock pot and pour the rest of the broth on top. Set the crock pot to low for 8-12 hours....it will be fork tender when done. If you are at home you can turn the roast over once half way through but this is not necessary.
I always serve this with mashed potatoes and some other veggie that I cook on the stove....if you like gravy after removing the roast from the crock pot pour the broth into a pan and wisk about 2-3 table spoons of flour into it over medium heat. Keep stiring gravy with thicken as it reaches a boil. Enjoy.
If you are short on time remember that 1 hour on high = 2 hours on low. Also remember every time you take off the lid you can add another 1/2 hour to your cooking time.Any quick and easy recipes for the crockpot?

Green smoothies!
Baby spinach: Delicious; iron rich (as well as HEAPS of other nutrients) and just good for you!
Kiwifruit: Really high in vitamin C (aids iron absorption).
Banana: Gives a nice creamy consistency to the smoothie.
Water.
It's yummy and nutritious!Does anyone know any quick and easy recipes that are high in iron and energy?
Energy: anything uncooked.
Iron: handful of sesame seeds. 1oz of beef has 3% of your daily value of iron, but 1oz of sesame seeds has a whopping 27% of your daily value of iron.
Combine the two and you're set. For example, try a sandwich full of yummy raw veggies and add sesame seeds to the spread. Get more iron in by using spinach instead of lettuce.
This quinoa risotto has protein from the quinoa and salmon, with iron from kale, and a bit of fat from olive oil.

Sirniki (Russian Cheese Pancakes)
These Russian Fried Cheese Pancakes (Patties), prounounced SEER-ni-kee, are delicious served hot out of the pan – the outsides still crispy, the insides creamy… They are very easy, and the dough can be made ahead. Sirniki are usually served as a brunch or breakfast dish, or as a dessert, with sour cream or jam. Some like both!
1 lb farmer cheese
2 eggs
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup flour, plus
extra flour, for dipping
2 tablespoons butter, approx
sour cream or jam, for serving
3-4 servings
1. In a food processor, pulse the farmer’s cheese until it is uniformly crumpled. Add the eggs, sugar, salt, and ½ cup of flour. Pulse or mix to combine. Refrigerate 1 hour, or even overnight. The dough will remain thick but sticky.
2. Put approximately 1/3 cup of flour into a bowl, and use this to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands. Using 2 teaspoons, drop 1½” balls of dough into the flour, roll them round, and flatten to about 3/8” thick. Place them on a plate in a single layer until all the patties are all formed.
3. Heat a frying pan with 1 T. butter, and fry the patties on each side until golden. You will need to add more butter as you go.
4. Serve hot with sour cream and/or jam. This recipe will make approximately 20 small patties.
5. NOTE: Farmer Cheese is usually found near the cream cheese; my store sells Friendship brand. These days, the packages are just under 1/2 pound (don't you hate this incremental downsizing?), and 2 packages will work fine.
6. About the Times, Prep time is mostly frying time, and Passive time is the chilling time.

1 head of cabbage (small to medium)
1 onion (medium)
4 large eggs (hard boiled)
1 lb (or 500g) ground beef
Salt
Other spices
Crust:
-If you live in countries where a ready pie crust is sold in supermarkets, get 2 9-inch round crusts (any brand will work);
-If you have to make the crust yourself, here are the ingredients for the dough:
2 1/2 cups of flour
1 teaspoon of sugar (regular or powedered)
1 teaspoon of salt
1 cup of solid vegetable shorteninng OR 1/2 cup of vegetable shortening and 8 tablespoons of unsalted butter OR 1 cup of unsalted butter
1/2 cup of ice cold water
*Note: If some of the units or abbreviations look unfamiliar to you, click here.
• Method
Filling:
Finely cut the cabbage and onion; heat up a large skillet with 2 tablespoons of oil; when it is hot add chopped onion; satee the onion until golden brown; then add cabbage and cook on medium heat for 15-20 minutes or until golden in color and soft in consistency. Simulatenously, in a separate skillet satee the ground beef; cook it for 5-10 minutes or until the meat is of consistent brown color and there is no redness. Boil the eggs. When everything is ready, mix the cabbage, meat, and chopped eggs together; add salt and/or other spices. Your filling is ready!
Crust:
If you are making your own dough:
In a large bowl thoroughly mix together flour, salt, and sugar. Then add shortening (broken in large chunks) or butter (cut into small pieces). Begin chopping the fat/butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives. When you are done, the mixture should be of coarse consistency; dry and powdery. Then drizzle over the mixture 1/3 cup + 1 tablespoon of ice cold water. Begin mixing the dough with a spatula until the mixture looks evenly moistened and begins to form small balls. Press down on the dough with the flat side spatula. If the balls of dough stick together, you have added enough water; if the do not, drizzle the dough with 1 to 2 tablespoons of ice cold water. Continue to mix the dough first with the spatula, then with your hands until it coheres. The dough should look rough, not smooth. Divide the dough in half; press each half into a round flat disk, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before rolling. The dough can be frozen for up to 6 month in an airtight packaging (Thaw completely before rolling).
When your dough is ready to roll, roll out 2 9-inch (~22cm) rounds. Place one crust on the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan; press the dough over the bottom and into the corners of the pan. Transfer the filling into the pan; smoothen the top. Place the second crust on top and seal the sides. The dough should not hang over the sides of the pan too much, otherwise it will char; you can either cut the excess dough with a knife, or fold it inside the pan. Before baking, cut 4 ventilation holes on the top crust of your pie. Bake in an oven pre-heated to 350F (175C) for 20-30 minutes or untill golden. When done, let the pie sit out for 15-20 minutes. Serve warm. Great with milk. Enjoy!!!

boneless skinless chicken breast. place on top of stove in pan with about 1 cup water cover and let steam (20 min) add jar of salsa, cook for 5 more min. sprinkle with shredded mozzerella cheese and cover til cheese is almost melted. 1 min.
Stew is very easy and its gorgeous especially in winter, just buy some stewing steak, onions, carrots, potatoes (any veg you want really)
Fry the steak of with the finely chopped onions in a large pan
Add the chopped veg and fill the pan to the top with beef stock
Add half a tin of cream of tomato soup some salt and pepper and leave to simmer until the meat is tender. (Keep adding water until its cooked then let it thicken) That's my favourite!!
Tuna Sandwich. Use any type of bread (although Russian and Wheat are good) and tuna. You can put anything you want in tuna but you must have tuna (duh) and a little mayonnaise. I like to add chopped olives, pickles, and mustard. Some people also like onions. Just mix it up in a bowl with a spatula.
Brown a pound of hamburger. Drain off the fat. Add two cans of stewed tomatoes. Simmer until most of the juice is gone. Stir in two cans cream corn. When corn is hot it's ready. This is my moms ';Easy Goulash'; recipe. You can add boiled pasta if you want.
For an outstandingly wonderful chocolate dessert (requires a blender)
Pour 1 1/2 cups of milk into a saucepan and heat to boiling.
Put 2 cups of chocolate chips (16 oz) and 2 eggs, 1/4 cup of sugar and a pinch of salt in the blender. Pour in the hot milk and blend till smooth. Pour into little bowls or cups and chill in fridge at least 2 hours. We like to put a spoon of strawberry or raspberry or apricot jam in the bottom of our bowls and pour chocolate in on top. Plain or with fruit it's really rich and tasty.
I just made a really easy beef stroganoff the other night. I used egg noodles, a pound of ground beef, onions and garlic, a half can of beef broth and about a half cup sour cream.
Just boil the noodles, fry the ground beef with the onions and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle a scant tablespoon of flour over the meat and stir it in, then deglaze the pan with the beef broth. Add the noodles and sour cream, stir, reseason if necessary. Quick and easy- you could have this on the table in 15 minutes!

Disappearing Enchiladas
I made this recipe up one day and it is always a big hit...it is also really simple to do!
2 pounds ground beef
2 packages beef chorizo
1 cup Oaxaca cheese, crumbled
1 can of green chiles
1 large can chopped olives
1 cup green onions, chopped, divided
2 cups Mexican cheese blend, divided
1 cup sour cream, divided
Small flour tortillas
1/2 cup half-and-half
In a skillet brown the ground beef and drain; set aside.
Next, thoroughly cook the chorizo in a skillet and drain; set aside.
In a large bowl combine the beef, chorizo, Oaxaca cheese, green chiles, olives, 1/2 cup green onions, 1 cup Mexican cheese blend and 1/2 cup sour cream. stir until all the cheeses are melted.
Butter a 9 x 13-inch glass baking dish. Spoon the mixture into the tortillas, about 3-4 tablespoons for each tortilla. Roll the tortillas into an enchilada shape and place side by side in the dish. When the dish is full, pour the half-and-half over the top of the enchiladas. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes, then sprinkle the remaining Mexican cheese blend and green onions on top and bake for another 5 minutes. Serve hot.
Makes about 12 - serves 6.
NOTE: If you have extra filling mixture left after filling the tortillas, it can be used as a great dip if served with Fritos.
Here is one of my favs (you've gotta love anything you can make in a crock pot)
Barbecued Pork
2 1/2 pork tenderloin, cut into large chunks, if necessary
rub with salt, pepper, %26amp; chicken grill seasoning
brown outside
place in crockpot with the following ingredients: 1 onion, chopped;1 clove garlic, minced; 1/4 cup brown sugar; 1 teaspoon dry mustard; 1/2 cup ketchup; 1/2 cup white wine; 1 cup barbeque sauce ( I strongly recommend Sweet Baby Rays); 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
Cook on high 3 - 4 hours or low 6 - 8 hours, until the meat shreds
Here's a REALLY fast one:
Honey Pecan Pork Chops
1 1/4 pounds boneless pork loin, pounded thin
1/2 cup all-purpose flour for coating
1/4 - 1/2 tsp. chili powder
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup chopped pecans
splash of soy sauce
In a shallow dish, mix together flour, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Dredge pork cutlets in the flour mixture. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add chops, and brown both sides. Transfer to a warm plate. Mix honey, pecans, and soy sauce into the pan drippings. Heat through, stirring constantly. Do not heat too long or the sauce will harden. Pour sauce over cutlets.
Take a steak, heat a frying pan a small amount of oil, a sliced onion.
put onion in pan, fry until translucent put in steak cook to liking.
Or get bread spread with butter %26amp; add topping ..
Strawberry Angel Food Cake
1 storebought Angel Food cake, torn into bite sized pieces
1 (8oz.) package no fat cream cheese, softened
1 (12 oz.) container light whipped cream
2/3 cup powdered sugar
2 lbs. fresh strawberries, sliced
With electric mixer, mix together the cream cheese, whipped cream and powdered sugar.
In a large clear glass bowl, layer half of the cake, spread half of the cream cheese mixure over that, then half of the strawberries. Repeat layers, ending with strawberries.
Chill until ready to serve.
Want something simple? Throw the chicken in an olive oil, or your favorite oil, covered pan sautee until fully cooked. Remove the chicken then put a little more oil in pan and sautee some of your favorite chopped veggies (carrots, mushrooms, broccoli, bell peppers, onions, etc.). When veggies are done (you don't want them too soft because then all the vitamins will be gone, semi soft is good) Then add two cans of mushroom soup in the pan and heat on low. IMPORTANT: cook this on low so you don't scald the mushroom soup. Stir frequently. When soup is hot add chicken and cook on low for a few minutes. This is good over rice or cooked noodles. Sometimes I even boil noodles on the side and when the pan stuff is finished and the noodles are finished I put the noodles in the pan with the other stuff and mix it all together.
Another easy one:
Preheat oven to 325
Boil your favorite noodles in a pot (I use two packs of ramen noodles, just the noodles not the spice pack, or two 2 1/2 cups of macaroni noodles)
Open two cans of tuna fish, drain and flake with fork
Get a cassarole dish
Layer the noodles and flaked tuna fish- 1/3 of noodles first, then 1/2 of tuna fish (flaked or broke up with fork), cont. layering until finished.
When finished layering crumble up a half of a pack of crackers and sprinkle evenly on top of the noodle, tuna layers.
Put a few drops of butter on top of crackers evenly.
If you like cheese you can put some cheese on top of each layer of noodle and tuna and then sprinkle some on top of the cracker crumbs.
Cook in preheated oven until cheese on top is melted or crackers are slightly brown.
It will be hot so be careful and enjoy.
yes, i do have such recipes ! But its currently classed as top secret. Sorry, cant help you this time around

boneless skinless chicken breast. place on top of stove in pan with about 1 cup water cover and let steam (20 min) add jar of salsa, cook for 5 more min. sprinkle with shredded mozzerella cheese and cover til cheese is almost melted. 1 min.
Stew is very easy and its gorgeous especially in winter, just buy some stewing steak, onions, carrots, potatoes (any veg you want really)
Fry the steak of with the finely chopped onions in a large pan
Add the chopped veg and fill the pan to the top with beef stock
Add half a tin of cream of tomato soup some salt and pepper and leave to simmer until the meat is tender. (Keep adding water until its cooked then let it thicken) That's my favourite!!
Tuna Sandwich. Use any type of bread (although Russian and Wheat are good) and tuna. You can put anything you want in tuna but you must have tuna (duh) and a little mayonnaise. I like to add chopped olives, pickles, and mustard. Some people also like onions. Just mix it up in a bowl with a spatula.
Brown a pound of hamburger. Drain off the fat. Add two cans of stewed tomatoes. Simmer until most of the juice is gone. Stir in two cans cream corn. When corn is hot it's ready. This is my moms ';Easy Goulash'; recipe. You can add boiled pasta if you want.
For an outstandingly wonderful chocolate dessert (requires a blender)
Pour 1 1/2 cups of milk into a saucepan and heat to boiling.
Put 2 cups of chocolate chips (16 oz) and 2 eggs, 1/4 cup of sugar and a pinch of salt in the blender. Pour in the hot milk and blend till smooth. Pour into little bowls or cups and chill in fridge at least 2 hours. We like to put a spoon of strawberry or raspberry or apricot jam in the bottom of our bowls and pour chocolate in on top. Plain or with fruit it's really rich and tasty.
I just made a really easy beef stroganoff the other night. I used egg noodles, a pound of ground beef, onions and garlic, a half can of beef broth and about a half cup sour cream.
Just boil the noodles, fry the ground beef with the onions and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle a scant tablespoon of flour over the meat and stir it in, then deglaze the pan with the beef broth. Add the noodles and sour cream, stir, reseason if necessary. Quick and easy- you could have this on the table in 15 minutes!

Disappearing Enchiladas
I made this recipe up one day and it is always a big hit...it is also really simple to do!
2 pounds ground beef
2 packages beef chorizo
1 cup Oaxaca cheese, crumbled
1 can of green chiles
1 large can chopped olives
1 cup green onions, chopped, divided
2 cups Mexican cheese blend, divided
1 cup sour cream, divided
Small flour tortillas
1/2 cup half-and-half
In a skillet brown the ground beef and drain; set aside.
Next, thoroughly cook the chorizo in a skillet and drain; set aside.
In a large bowl combine the beef, chorizo, Oaxaca cheese, green chiles, olives, 1/2 cup green onions, 1 cup Mexican cheese blend and 1/2 cup sour cream. stir until all the cheeses are melted.
Butter a 9 x 13-inch glass baking dish. Spoon the mixture into the tortillas, about 3-4 tablespoons for each tortilla. Roll the tortillas into an enchilada shape and place side by side in the dish. When the dish is full, pour the half-and-half over the top of the enchiladas. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes, then sprinkle the remaining Mexican cheese blend and green onions on top and bake for another 5 minutes. Serve hot.
Makes about 12 - serves 6.
NOTE: If you have extra filling mixture left after filling the tortillas, it can be used as a great dip if served with Fritos.
Here is one of my favs (you've gotta love anything you can make in a crock pot)
Barbecued Pork
2 1/2 pork tenderloin, cut into large chunks, if necessary
rub with salt, pepper, %26amp; chicken grill seasoning
brown outside
place in crockpot with the following ingredients: 1 onion, chopped;1 clove garlic, minced; 1/4 cup brown sugar; 1 teaspoon dry mustard; 1/2 cup ketchup; 1/2 cup white wine; 1 cup barbeque sauce ( I strongly recommend Sweet Baby Rays); 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
Cook on high 3 - 4 hours or low 6 - 8 hours, until the meat shreds
Here's a REALLY fast one:
Honey Pecan Pork Chops
1 1/4 pounds boneless pork loin, pounded thin
1/2 cup all-purpose flour for coating
1/4 - 1/2 tsp. chili powder
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup chopped pecans
splash of soy sauce
In a shallow dish, mix together flour, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Dredge pork cutlets in the flour mixture. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add chops, and brown both sides. Transfer to a warm plate. Mix honey, pecans, and soy sauce into the pan drippings. Heat through, stirring constantly. Do not heat too long or the sauce will harden. Pour sauce over cutlets.
Take a steak, heat a frying pan a small amount of oil, a sliced onion.
put onion in pan, fry until translucent put in steak cook to liking.
Or get bread spread with butter %26amp; add topping ..
Strawberry Angel Food Cake
1 storebought Angel Food cake, torn into bite sized pieces
1 (8oz.) package no fat cream cheese, softened
1 (12 oz.) container light whipped cream
2/3 cup powdered sugar
2 lbs. fresh strawberries, sliced
With electric mixer, mix together the cream cheese, whipped cream and powdered sugar.
In a large clear glass bowl, layer half of the cake, spread half of the cream cheese mixure over that, then half of the strawberries. Repeat layers, ending with strawberries.
Chill until ready to serve.
Want something simple? Throw the chicken in an olive oil, or your favorite oil, covered pan sautee until fully cooked. Remove the chicken then put a little more oil in pan and sautee some of your favorite chopped veggies (carrots, mushrooms, broccoli, bell peppers, onions, etc.). When veggies are done (you don't want them too soft because then all the vitamins will be gone, semi soft is good) Then add two cans of mushroom soup in the pan and heat on low. IMPORTANT: cook this on low so you don't scald the mushroom soup. Stir frequently. When soup is hot add chicken and cook on low for a few minutes. This is good over rice or cooked noodles. Sometimes I even boil noodles on the side and when the pan stuff is finished and the noodles are finished I put the noodles in the pan with the other stuff and mix it all together.
Another easy one:
Preheat oven to 325
Boil your favorite noodles in a pot (I use two packs of ramen noodles, just the noodles not the spice pack, or two 2 1/2 cups of macaroni noodles)
Open two cans of tuna fish, drain and flake with fork
Get a cassarole dish
Layer the noodles and flaked tuna fish- 1/3 of noodles first, then 1/2 of tuna fish (flaked or broke up with fork), cont. layering until finished.
When finished layering crumble up a half of a pack of crackers and sprinkle evenly on top of the noodle, tuna layers.
Put a few drops of butter on top of crackers evenly.
If you like cheese you can put some cheese on top of each layer of noodle and tuna and then sprinkle some on top of the cracker crumbs.
Cook in preheated oven until cheese on top is melted or crackers are slightly brown.
It will be hot so be careful and enjoy.
