Light-But-Hearty Tuna Casserole
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Bake: 25 min.
YIELD: 4 servings.
My boyfriend grew up loving his mother's tuna casserole and says he can't even tell that this one is healthier! We have this light tuna casserole 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
