Poor Man's Tuna Casserole image

A friend and I made this up in college -- as we did not have much money, nor a proper kitchen. Over the years, I have tweaked it a bit -- now that I DO have a proper kitchen!

I'm not sure how I feel about tuna casserole. I've never tried it before.

This recipe reminds me of my childhood. My mom used to make tuna casserole all the time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my tuna casserole turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked it. Next time I'll try cooking it for a shorter amount of time.

This recipe was a flop. The tuna casserole was bland and watery. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out well.

I'm not a big fan of tuna casserole, but this recipe was actually pretty good. I think the key is to use good quality tuna. I also added a little bit of diced celery and onion to the tuna mixture.

This recipe is so easy to make and it's always a hit with my family. I like to add a little bit of extra cheese to the top before baking.

I was really surprised at how good this recipe was. I didn't think I would like tuna casserole, but this recipe changed my mind. It's definitely a keeper.

This is a classic recipe that my mom used to make. It's so simple, but it's always delicious. I like to serve it with a side of mashed potatoes.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. I like to add a little bit of diced onion and garlic to the tuna mixture. I also use a can of cream of mushroom soup instead of cream of celery soup.

This is a great recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. I used canned tuna, frozen peas, and a can of cream of celery soup. I also added a cup of shredded cheddar cheese. It was delicious!
