Tuna biscuit casserole

This is one of moms go to meals when we were poor.  (which was always…lol)  but my kids love it.

Mix in a bowl 2 cans of cream of chicken soup (i prefer cream of mushroom for added flavor, but have also used cream of brocolli, or cream of celery), 1 1/2Can of milk (use the can from the soup for measurement) and 1 can of tuna, drained.  Stir well and put in a cake pan.

 

baking powder biscuits:

2 1/2 cups flour

4 tsp baking Powder (not soda….it is nasty, don’t ask how i know)

1/4 cup sugar

dash of salt (optional)

mix well:

cut in 2/3 cup of shortening (use a pastry blender or a fork and continue to mix in the shortening until is in small pea size pieces)

slowly add 2/3 cup milk

Mom used to actually roll this dough out and cut biscuits.  I prefer to take this step out and just do drop biscuits.  My dough is pretty sticky but it is easy to drop biscuits and then I don’t have the mess on the counter.  If the dough is sticky and you prefer to roll out the dough just add another 1/2 cup flour.

 

bake at 400 until biscuits are brown on top.
