Mom's Creamed Tuna on Toast

This is my mother's (and earlier, my grandmother's) recipe for a cheap, filling weekday dinner that'd satisfy most picky eaters. Cream Tuna on Toast (creamed in the title because cream is not one of the ingredients) was invented in order to appease my uncle, who (famously in my family), at forty-something, will only eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich if the peanut butter and jelly have been spread with separate knives onto the two separate slices, then cut diagonally in half with the crusts off, on Iron Kids bread (the man is exacting, and the only boy--I leave you to draw your own conclusions). It's fast and from storecupboard ingredients, and seriously old-school. Enjoy!
