Tuna Rockefeller

So many of Mom's recipes are casseroles--a bunch of ingredients thrown together in a dish and heated in the oven for a bit. Tuna Rockefeller is such a recipe. Easy on a weekday night, Tuna Rockefeller is made from ingredients that are usually kept around for use anytime. Served with a side of veggies, this recipe can be the family's main dish, a side dish or a potluck dish.

As with so many casseroles, just mix all the ingredients together. Note: I recommend thoroughly defrosting the frozen spinach so that it mixes easier and excess water can be drained. I used an 8-inch round casserole dish but any type of similarly sized dish could do.

Tuna Rockefeller

• 1 large can (12 ounces) tuna, drained
• 2 packages (10 ounces each) frozen chopped spinach, drained
• 1 cup bread crumbs
• 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• salt and grated pepper to taste
• 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese plus extra for top

Mix together all ingredients. Spray a casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray. Spread the tuna mix into the dish. Sprinkle the top with the Parmesan.

Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until done. If you would like the cheese somewhat browned, you can use the broiler for the last five minutes or so.
