I put peas in mine. Can't do the cream soup any more because of food
allergies. I made a sauce of chopped mushrooms, onion and celery. I cook
them till soft then add some sweet rice flour and water to make it more
creamy. Season with salt, pepper and parsley. I also can't use regular
paasta. Have to use quinoa, rice or corn pasta. I think quinoa tastes the
best with the tuna.

I don't put the chips on mine because we usually have leftover and it gets
soggy. I just serve it with them.
