Fran's Notes: This is a heritage recipe, but not MY heritage. My mother wasn't a real fan of "tuna fish" so I don't really remember any at our house, except canned tuna for tuna salad. But a friend's mother made Tuna Noodle Casserole once when I was invited over for dinner and I absolutely LOVED it. I just never made it until I moved out on my own. The 60s and 70s will never truly be gone as long as this recipe is around. =^..^=
