Description
Sometimes when you get home from work and everyone in the house is hungry, you don’t have time to be making some gourmet meal. I know that when this happens, and I’m tired from a rough day of work on top of things, I pull out the Tuna Puff Casserole to get the job done. This is good when you have extra items and cans of tuna floating around and you want to utilize it in a way to make a giant meal. This will serve 6.
