Ingredients (serves 4)
145g (1 cup) macaroni pasta
1 tablespoon butter
1 brown onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons plain flour
2 cups skim milk
1 tablespoon wholegrain mustard
1/2 cup grated light tasty cheese
185g can tuna in spring water, drained
2 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
1/2 cup wholegrain breadcrumbs
Pop pasta into boiling water and cook until ready.
Put butter in a pan along with the chopped onion and cook until soft.
Add flour, and stir for a minute.
Gradually add milk, stirring all the time to make a white sauce.
Add mustard:
Add tuna:
Add Cheese:
Add parsley:
Add cooked and drained pasta:
I then had a brain wave, as I didn't have any old bread for breadcrumbs, but I did have some wholewheat Ritz chips. So I crushed some of those up and used them instead of the breadcrumbs.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in a 180o C or 350 oF oven, until golden brown. Serve with garlic bread, steamed vegetables or a salad.
