Good recipe for those times when you just want something quick!! I use 2 cans of tuna in any recipe for tuna cassarole though, and f/f milk, cut out extra fats when possible. Added more parmasan, but glad to use the spinach, would be good with broccoli or even asparagus if you had it. Easy thing to have that box of Tuna Helper in your cabinet and on hand!! Comfort food is right!!
