Tuna Casserole

1/2 cup sliced celery
1/4 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 can (10 1/2 ounces) condensed cream of celery soup
1 soup can of milk
1 can (6 ounces) tuna, drained and flaked
2 tablespoons diced pimiento (optional)
1 tablespoon salt
3 quarts boiling water
8 ounces (5 1/2 to 6 cups) medium egg noodles
1/4 cup buttered bread crumbs

Cook celery and onion in butter until crisp-tender but not brown. Blend in soup and milk; add tuna and pimiento.

Meanwhile, add salt to rapidly boiling water. Gradually add noodles so that water continues to boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain in colander.

In 2-quart casserole, combine noodles and tuna mixture; top with crumbs. Bake at 350 F, for 25 to 30 minutes, or until lightly brown.

Kay's Tip: In place of medium egg noodles, use wide egg noodles, or sea-shell macaroni.
