| Cold water | 1 1/4 Cup (16 tbs) | |
| 4 tsp plain gelatine | ||
| 1 (6-oz) can frozen limeade | ||

| 1/2 cup each diced celery, cucumber and green pepper | ||
Directions
Cream the cheese until soft and stir in well-drained finely flaked tuna.
Add mayonnaise.
Taste and add salt if necessary.
Mold the mixture into 8 balls, then flatten slightly to look like large marsh-mallows.
Chill.
Oil 8 large deep muffin cups.
Heat cold water and plain gelatine together until dissolved.
Remove from heat and stir in the limeade.
Chill until thick and add remaining ingredients.
Spoon a heaping tablespoonful of the mixture into each muffin cup to cover the bottom and chill.
When almost set, arrange tunafish shapes in the centre of each and spoon remaining vegetable mixture over top and sides to fill cups.
Chill and unmold.
Serve in individual lettuce cups and garnish if you wish with thin slices of cucumber and rolled anchovy fillets.
Fresh tomato wedges and potato chips are nice accompaniments.
