Tuna Nut Bake with Orange Carrot Salad

Posted 2018-04-12 by finyfollow

This was delicious, and something slightly different to the "norm".
The addition of slightly salted peanuts and browned egg noodles made this dish special, and very moorish.

Ingredients
About 140 g egg noodles, cooked
¼ clove garlic
A few drops of hot pepper sauce
¾ tin cream of mushroom soup
