I remember the day I rushed home from school with this recipe in hand from my home economics class. My parents loved it then, and my husband and son do now. This recipe comes to mind on a busy evening, when I need a good quick meal.—Pamela Tesoriero, Etiwanda, California

We thought this was a pretty good meal. Make sure your rice is firm, because otherwise this dish could get mushy fast. I steamed fresh broccoli since I'm not a fan of frozen. I also added in some onion to the mix. I used 2 small cans of tuna (5oz each), seemed to work fine. It was a decent meal, but I think next time I'd add in some red bell pepper and some garlic. I might also try cream of celery or cream of broccoli... I found the "chicken" flavor to be a bit overpowering. I'd make this again though with some tweaks.

My family really enjoyed this after they mixed it all together. Made it in individual dishes so everyone had their favorite cheese. Since I'm allergic to broccoli I mixed in cooked carrots.

This recipe is real comfort food. Even my son who claims he doesn't like tuna hot eats it with pleasure. I made it one time with shredded Swiss cheese when I didn't have cheddar and that was good, too.
