I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly! The tuna filling was creamy and flavorful, and the potatoes were perfectly baked. I will definitely be making this again.

This is a great recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The potatoes bake while you prepare the tuna filling, so it's a very hands-off recipe.

The potatoes were a bit dry, but the tuna filling was delicious. I will definitely try this recipe again, but I will make sure to add some more butter or milk to the mashed potatoes.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices or herbs to the tuna filling next time.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The tuna filling is so versatile, I've even added chopped veggies or herbs to it for a different flavor.
