5 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 cups shredded mild Cheddar cheese
3 hard cooked eggs
2 cans tuna (6 1/2 ounces each)
1 cup fresh bread crumbs

Cook macaroni according to package directions or just soak in water for 60 minutes; drain and rinse. Turn into a 2-quart buttered casserole. In saucepan, melt butter; stir in flour and milk. Cook sauce, stirring, until smooth and thickened. Add salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheese.

Chop eggs coarsely; scatter chopped eggs and flaked tuna over macaroni. Pour cheese sauce over all. Sprinkle with remaining cheese mixed with bread crumbs. Bake at 375 for 30 to 40 minutes, or until browned and bubbly.
