Light Veggie and Tuna Pie image

My daughter loves tuna...mainly in a tuna sandwich or my tuna macaroni salad. But, sometimes I like to serve it in a main course. I checked with the good folks at "Chicken of the Sea" and came up with this recipe that was a winner with my whole family! (Cook time does not include time if using microwave)

I'm not a big fan of tuna, but this pie was surprisingly good. The vegetables and cheese really balance out the flavor of the tuna.
