CREAMY TUNA AND MASHED POTATO PIE
Quick and easy if you use pre prepared stuff, not as quick but just as easy if you do it all from scratch. It is up to you the type of cheese sauce and the kind of mashed potatoes you use, spice it up, or leave it simple. This is loved by kids and adults in my house. Time based on making cheese sauce and potatoes from scratch.

TATER CRUST TUNA PIE
I make this pie a lot because it is quick and easy to prepare (I teach during the day, so my cooking time is limited), and it's one of my husband's favorites. I like the combination of potato flakes and french-fried onions in this pastry crust...they complement the tuna/cheese filling well.

Tips:
- Use quality ingredients: Fresh tuna, creamy mashed potatoes, and flavorful vegetables will make all the difference in the final dish.
- Don't overcook the tuna: Tuna is a delicate fish that can easily become dry and tough if overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque in the center, about 8-10 minutes.
- Make sure the mashed potatoes are smooth and creamy: Use a potato ricer or a food mill to get the smoothest results. Adding a little bit of butter, milk, and sour cream will also help to make the potatoes creamy and flavorful.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables: The recipe calls for peas and carrots, but you can use any vegetables that you like. Some other good options include broccoli, cauliflower, and green beans.
- Use a good quality cheese: The cheese will add a lot of flavor to the dish, so use a cheese that you enjoy. A sharp cheddar or a Gruyère would be good choices.
- Serve the pie hot and fresh: The pie is best when it is served hot and fresh out of the oven. However, it can also be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven or microwave.
Conclusion:
Creamy tuna and mashed potato pie is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious and satisfying pie that your family and friends will love.
