Light-But-Hearty Tuna Casserole image

My boyfriend grew up loving his mother's tuna casserole and says he can't even tell that this one is light! We have it at least once a month. I usually serve it with a salad, but it has enough veggies to stand on its own. -Heidi Carofano, Brooklyn, New York

This tuna casserole was just okay. The flavor was a bit bland and the texture was mushy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
