Hearty Zucchini and Tuna Casserole image

This is a nice change from the traditional tuna casserole. You can substitute canned salmon for the tuna and can also make this without the zucchini (or use some mixed veggies or broccoli instead). My young daughters love this recipe (as long as I peel the zucchini before putting it in the casserole)!

This casserole was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have used less salt next time.

I found this casserole to be a bit too oily. I think I would have drained the tuna better before adding it to the casserole.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had added some more spices or herbs.
