GRANDMA SMITH'S TUNA CASSEROLE

This is an easy to make creamy pasta dish, that I usually have all the ingredients for on hand. It is comfort food at it's best! My Grandma Smith raised 10 children on this recipe and my 3 year old loves it, very kid-friendly. I usually use whole wheat pasta for extra fiber and nutrition.

CONFETTI TUNA CASSAROLE

This recipe is best with fresh or leftover grilled tuna. If you have to use canned, I recommend using twice the seasoning. Can be prepared ahead of time and placed in the oven later.
