What on earth is Tuna Pea Wiggle you ask? Well, it’s a delicious dish particular to the northeastern U.S that consists of tuna, and peas in a white sauce.
It’s usually served over toast, crackers, or potatoes.
I’ll admit it’s the weird name that first attracted me to the dish. But after trying it I’m convinced that it’s not just a funny name but a delicious budget-stretching dish that kiddies just love!
The name is not just to be funny either. It was not made up by a mom or grandma just to please the kiddies.
Turns out “wiggle” is another name for sauce! Didn’t know that before.
