    Italian Tuna Casserole, Rachael Ray, Can’t rate this, because it wasn’t to our taste – We like spicy food But, as an example of tuna casserole, this was very good It’s easy to prepare Servings were very generous The spinach was a good addition I’d planned to add red bell pepper to perk it up – that would have helped I did add red pepper flakes, which worked nicely with the cheese topping
