With olives and onion juice, because of course.
Here’s a take from the July 24, 1957 edition of the Winnipeg (Manitoba) Free Press:
Tomato Tuna Mold
1 tin tomato soup Heat soup in double boiler. Add cream cheese and beat until smooth. Soften the gelatin in cold water and lemon juice for 5 minutes. Add to soup mixture. Add remaining ingredients. Mold and chill until set. Yield: 12 servings. Serve on crisp greens with cucumber slices and lemon wedges. |
