Good Light Lunch
This dish made a good light lunch. I did not want anything heavy and it met the requirement. Good flavor.

Better then mine
I've had a recipe, sort of, that I have used for years. I found this one and decided to try something new. I was kind of surprised how much I liked it. I'm pretty sure I'll be using it from now on.

Great
I made this for dinner tonight, but I made some substitutions and omitted some ingredients. Everyone liked it. Instead of the mushroom soup, I used 2 cans of cream of shrimp soup. I thought the shrimp and tuna flavors would go nicely together, and I'm not a fan of mushrooms. I used 2 cans of 1% milk instead of evaporated milk to cut calories. I omitted the veggies and potato chips. I used a 2 1/2 inch block of cheese, first cutting it into slices and then cubing it. I also used 3 cans of tuna and then crushed a few crackers for the top.
I was looking for a recipe without using a white sauce for the base. I will definitely make this again, maybe without the topping.

Really good recipe, although I added a hand full of frozen peas along with the other vegetables. Freezes really well for a smaller family.

Creamy Tuna Casserole
I read all the available reviews before I made out my grocery list. I added mushrooms, cheese, the golden mushroom soup along with cream of mushroom and the rest of the recipe.
Thanks for the suggestions! I doubled the ingredients to freeze some and give some away. We enjoyed everything about this recipe and it was so easy to make. There are only two of us to feed so this went a long way! Hubby asked to take in his lunch tomorrow too.
