As part of an ongoing series, we are publishing one recipe every week from Pontiac County Recipes, a small book that is home to a collection of kitchen secrets from across the region, published by Pontiac Printshop in 1968.
Our rediscovery of this book last year has inspired us to recirculate its recipes, by way of this newspaper, through the communities from which they first came to us.
This week’s recipe is for tuna casserole. Now that the kids are back in school, a cheap and easy meal is always needed to send in their lunchbox. Now that temperatures outside are starting to drop, casseroles like these will stick to your ribs and sustain you through the rest of your day until you can cook something at home — ideally not out of a can. Enjoy this recipe that will remind you of your mother’s kitchen.
If you recognize a recipe from either your grandparents’ kitchen, or from your own, please write to us. We would love to hear about how these recipes have lived on.
