Tuna Noodle Casserole
When I was sixteen I went to visit my sister Janice on St.
Simmons Island. She made the most delicious dinner I have ever had Tuna Noodle
Casserole. It was so yummy. How can you go wrong with a dish that has ruffle
potato chip crumbled on the top! Years later in grad school, I served it to my housemate
Pat and she said, “You’re such a great cook.”
It’s still Pat’s favorite meal when she visits on her way to Florida.
1.
Boil gluten free egg noodles.
2.
Turn on oven to 365
3.
Take two can or gluten free mushroom soup and
pour into a bowl. (You can make mushroom soup from scratch,
4.
Stir in three table spoons of gluten free
powdered curry add more to taste.
5.
Stir in a dash of paprika a little salt and a
little pepper. Taste and see if you need more.
6.
Stir in two can of Bubble Bee dark tuna in oil.
(That’s the secret; it doesn’t taste nearly as good if you get light tuna in
water.)
7.
Butter a long casserole dish or spray well with
Pam
8.
Take cooked noodles and put them in casserole
9.
Spoon in the tuna mix and mix well.
10.
Put in oven
11.
Cook about 20 minutes
12.
Crunch up a cup of Cape Cod potato chips (they
are gluten and soy free)
13.
Sprinkle the crushed chips on the top of the
bubbling casserole
14.
Watch closely and cook about ten minutes longer.
Don’t burn the chips.
Enjoy with a green salad. Make two casseroles
if you like to have seconds. I always do!

Top Ten Packing Essentials From A Frequent Flyer/Speaker
In response to a media request I
compiled a list of my top ten must pack extras when I travel.
As a professional speaker I have
been traveling an average of once a week for over
30 years. So I have a pretty long list of essentials
1. My
IPhone sound machine that plays ocean waves to put me to sleep. I take an
extra cord for it and put something I need like the room key or my makeup bag
near the plugged in phone so I don’t forget the cord.
2. But
here is my most important and oddest staple, three novels. I am a voracious
reader I have a nook kindle and a surface pro. I also travel
with real books to distract me from any travel stress in airports and
planes. I don’t watch TV in hotel rooms.
3. A
bag on pistachio nuts and walnuts and 2 avocados and a few of the Jiffy
peanut butter mini travel cups so I can have lots a protein with me in case I miss
a meal. (I travel with a metal spoon too.)
4. A
pair of really warm socks to wear around the hotel room and sleep in cozy and
pair to work out in.
5. A
jogging suit to use both to work out in and just snuggle in. I have found
another use as well if I pack my hot pink jogging suit I hang the jacket over the
bedside table lamp at night to mute those new blue glaring florescent lights
that are not conducive to sleep. The pink gives the room a calming red pinkish
light that is similar to the red light waves that are more conducive to sleep.
I use to travel with an old low watt bulb but it got too cumbersome. I
have spent some time trying to make or find a fireproof gel light bulb cover.
6. A
cold prevention emergency kit with homeopathic tablets, vitamins and aspirin,
and ibuprofen.
7. An
assortment of my favorite decaffeinated teas and hot chocolate that they don’t
have in hotels.
8. An
eye mask and earplugs and a potato chip bag clip to clip close the hotel
curtains that never stay closed otherwise.
9. In
addition to my regular clothes and make up I always pack a TV interview dress
and little black kami in case and an extra shirt in case I have an
unexpected media interview and or an extra day on the road. By the way I
wrap each item of clothing I bring with me on hangers and put it in a separate
dry-cleaning bag to prevent wrinkles and any need to use a hotel iron.
10. Pre-stamped
thank you notes for my clients.
