I’ve been with my husband for awhile now and when we first moved in together he told me about one of his favorite dinners growing up was his mom’s tuna casserole. Once he told me that I had to contact my mother-in-law and get the recipe. I made it for his birthday that year and he was so happy to have this comfort food again that he stuffed himself! Now I keep this recipe on standby when I want to give him a little comfort food. His favorite way to eat this is with lots and lots of pepper so if you have a tuna fan in the house and need something easy to prep and quick to bake, this is your go to recipe!
