This tuna vegetable casserole is delicious. The recipe calls for plenty of fresh and frozen vegetables that are usually on hand. In an attempt to eat healthier, my husband and I have been eating more vegetables and fewer meats. As a result, I have become more creative in coming up with dinner meals.
