TUNA BISCUIT BRAID
This recipe comes from the Chicago Tribune, published in the 1980s. I made it often but lost the recipe one day. I searched online for years, trying to find it again, and even tried to recreate it from memory, but nothing was quite right. We're remodeling the kitchen now, and lo and behold, the recipe card fell to the floor when we took the old cabinets down! So here it is, never to be lost again.
