CREAMY SPINACH TUNA CASSEROLE

This tuna casserole is anything but basic. We took a classic recipe and dressed it up with cheesy crescent pinwheels and spinach. And thanks to rotisserie chicken, your tuna noodle casserole can easily be transformed into chicken noodle casserole.

MODERN TUNA CASSEROLE

I loved tuna casserole as a kid and found myself craving it as an adult. However, the massive amounts of fat and salt in the traditional recipe were a turnoff healthwise, and it just didn't taste as good as I remembered. I reconfigured the recipe to include more vegetables and the result was delicious. -Rebecca Blanton, St. Helena, California
