"This recipe goes back over 20 years and to this day has remained a family favorite, there is nothing really fancy about this but makes a delicious casserole and also will work well using one or two regular size cans of solid light or white tuna, throw in a cup of frozen thawed peas or corn if desired"

We love Tuna Casserole and this looked too good go pass up, so we had it along with a salad and rolls for a rewarding dinner on a cold New England night to comfort our empty bellies. It was delicious! I am going to try it with tuna too and see how we like it. We will have it again!
