Found this in Pillsbury Pot Pies and Casseroles. There is one posted quite a bit like this one but a little different. This is quite easy and good. I have made this twice and I have sauted some onion and garlic and added to the casserole for a little more flavor.

### Tips:
  • Prepare the Ingredients: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients measured and prepped. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't miss anything.
  • Choose the Right Broccoli: Select broccoli florets that are fresh and vibrant green in color. Avoid any florets that are wilted or have brown spots.
  • Cook the Broccoli to Perfection: Broccoli should be cooked until it's tender but still has a slight crunch. Overcooked broccoli will become mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Use High-Quality Tuna: Opt for tuna that's packed in water or olive oil. Avoid tuna that's packed in oil, as it can be high in saturated fat.
  • Make a Flavorful Sauce: The sauce is what brings the dish together. Use a combination of mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and herbs to create a tangy and flavorful sauce.
  • Don't Overmix the Casserole: When combining the broccoli, tuna, and sauce, mix gently to avoid breaking up the broccoli florets.
  • Bake Until Golden Brown: Bake the casserole until the top is golden brown and bubbly. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
  • Garnish Before Serving: Before serving, sprinkle some fresh parsley or chives on top of the casserole for a pop of color and flavor.
### Conclusion: The broccoli tuna bake is a delicious and nutritious meal that's perfect for busy weeknights. It's packed with protein, vitamins, and minerals, making it a healthy choice for the whole family. Plus, it's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you're a fan of classic tuna casserole or looking for a new twist on an old favorite, this broccoli tuna bake is sure to please. So, gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and get ready to enjoy a delicious and satisfying meal!
