- Add the tuna, parsley, herbs, olives, lemon juice and 1/2 cup of the cheese. Stir until mixed through and heated.

- Bake at 350, uncovered, till all is heated through and bubbly, about 15 minutes.
- While leaving the casserole on the middle rack, turn oven on to broil and cook for 5 minutes or till the cheese on top is browned and crispy. Watch carefully to make sure cheese doesn't burn!
