Crack'in Good Tuna Mornay image

I found this recipe in the 1991 edition of the Australian Women's Weekly. It has been a family favourite ever since. A very good recipe to fall back on to if you forget to defrost some meat for dinner.

This dish is way too expensive for what it is. I could have made something similar at home for a fraction of the cost.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sauce didn't turn out creamy. It was more like a thick paste.

This dish is a bit bland for my taste. I would add some additional seasonings, such as salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

I'm not a fan of mushrooms, but I didn't even notice them in this dish. The sauce is so good, it masks the flavor of the mushrooms completely.
