Number of Servings:

Ingredients:

  1. 1 - 12 oz. can Light Tuna (in water) Drained and Flaked
  2. 2 cups - Fresh or Frozen Sweet Peas (NOT canned!) (Can use 10 oz. steam in bag peas)
  3. 1 - 10 oz Bird's Eye Long Grain White Rice Steamfresh
  4. 1 - 10.75 oz. can Cream of Mushroom Soup
  5. 4 - Hard Boiled Eggs Peeled and Diced
  6. 1 - 8 oz Bag Finely Shredded New York Extra Sharp Cheese
  7. 2/3 cups - Milk
  8. 3 tablespoons - Butter
  9. 1 teaspoons - Lemon Juice (or to taste)
  10. 1 teaspoons - Salt (or to taste)

Directions:

Microwave the rice in its bag for 90 seconds (or follow instructions on the steam in bag). When cooked, fluff with a fork, so it doesn't form clumps.

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine all ingredients (except cheese). Make sure to drain off water and flake the tuna. Stir until mixed well. Cover and microwave on high for 3 minutes. Stir again and cover with cheese. Cover and return to microwave. Heat 3 minutes more on high.

Instructions for 700 watt microwave. Adjust accordingly.
