Directions
Crispy-On-The-Top Tuna and Green Pea Casserole (Rocco Dispirito), This recipe is based on one of Rocco Dispiritos from his book, Now Eat This! Diet He says in its intro, Who grew up eating tuna casserole? Raise your hands Thats just about everybody Okay, this is not your mothers tuna casserolenor does it use Tuna Helper But it does taste just as wonderful without losing any of its comfort-food flavor Ive wowed it up a bit with Dijon mustard, and used whole wheat panko bread crumbs for that traditional crunchy topping If you cant find these particular bread crumbs, you can always toast leftover whole wheat bread and break it into crumbs with a rolling pin I made this the other night with Frenchs French Fried Onions because I was out of panko bread crumbs We loved this dish and it has become a new staple dish for us Per serving: 351 calories, 10g fat (5g sat / 1g mono / 0 5g poly), 64mg cholesterol, 589mg sodium, 34g carbohydrate, 6g fiber, 36g protein This calculates to 9 WeightWatchers Points Plus value He says you can save 31 calories per serving by omitting the peas Before his update, the classic tuna casserole has 28 fat grams and 826 calories thank you, Rocco! :), I’ve never had tuna casserole before, but I really enjoyed this one Very easy to make, and so creamy and delicious without all the calories I ran out of peas so I threw in some lima beans as well- I liked them in there I thought it was very flavorful as written, but I did use taco cheese instead of regular cheese A winning recipe , This was a simple, lower calorie casserole to put together I only used 10 ounces of tuna and increased the pasta to the full 12 ounce box So my casserole was not as creamy but still very tasty Made for Please Review My Recipe 2012
