Light Veggie and Tuna Pie image

My daughter loves tuna...mainly in a tuna sandwich or my tuna macaroni salad. But, sometimes I like to serve it in a main course. I checked with the good folks at "Chicken of the Sea" and came up with this recipe that was a winner with my whole family! (Cook time does not include time if using microwave)

This recipe is a waste of time. It didn't turn out well at all.

The crust was a little soggy, but the filling was delicious. I would definitely make this again, but I would try a different crust recipe.

This pie was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used some more seasoning, maybe some salt and pepper or some herbs. Otherwise, it was a good recipe.

I'm not a fan of tuna, but I really enjoyed this pie. The vegetables were cooked perfectly and the sauce was creamy and flavorful. I would definitely make this again, even without the tuna.

This recipe was easy to follow and the pie turned out great! I used frozen peas and corn, and I added a little bit of garlic powder to the filling. It was a delicious and healthy meal.

This veggie and tuna pie was light and flaky, with a creamy filling. The vegetables were perfectly cooked, still retaining their texture and flavor. The tuna added a nice protein boost, and the overall dish was very satisfying.
