Wow, at first I didn't think it would be that good, just sounded funny. But everyone loved it and wanted more. You should try it.

This recipe wasnt really that bad, but could have been a whole lot better maybe if chicken was substituted for the tuna. I havent tried that yet, but I know I wont use the tuna for this recipe if I do ever make it again.

It was very cheesy, but good. I made this during lent because I could not eat meat on Fridays. My friends did not like it very much, but I did.

It just didn't taste very good. I guess I just like traditional tuna casserole better.

We are trying to eat more fish and this seemed like an easy and tasty way to do it. I had to bake it for about an hour before the veggies were tender enough, next time I'll throw them in with the pasta for the last few minutes instead of relying on the pasta water to defrost them.

I thought this was super easy and cheap to make. While it won't be a 'favorite' in our house it will get made again!
