Hot Tuna Sandwich Cups
"We love biscuit cups with hot fillings, and this is one of the few ways that my boys will eat tuna. They go well with chips or salad, but will also hold up as an entree with veggie sides. This was originally in a Betty Crocker cookbook, but I omitted the peas called for because my family doesn't care for them. I have used light mayo, butter, and cheese, and they are still good."

what a great idea, I used dryed dill as I ran out of fresh I have to say I prefer the fresh better, I also sauteed some fresh minced garlic with the onion and celery, I also added in some fresh lemon juice to the tuna mixture, my family loved this, thanks for sharing this great recipe Dawn! -
Great light meal. I did this a bit different as I baked it in the oven and then served over homemade, fresh, buttermilk biscuits. Served with a salad. -
This one is a keeper in our family. I have made it twice now, once using the tuna and once substituting the tuna for canned salmon. Both times were a hit with my boys.

The joy of my life are my 2 sons, born in Dec. 00 and Jan. 04. I am currently a stay at home mom and love to make homemade meals and treats for my family. I live in PA, but the rest of my family are in AL and GA, and my boys and I spend weeks at a time in the South. I enjoy traveling with my husband and 2 sons.
I am an Auburn University Alumni and a HUGE Auburn Tigers fan...WAR EAGLE! From August until November, you know what I'll be doing on Saturdays...watching ANY NCAA game on TV.
I am also a fan of NASCAR. I have only been to 2 tracks, Talladega several times and Dover once, but I hope to visit many more. Pocono is only an hour away, so maybe someday! Atlanta is another real possibility with family close by.
My furbaby Wickett (a pekinese-poodle mix I had for almost 14 years) went to live at the Rainbow Bridge on April 4, 2007. He was literally my first born child! He will always be in my heart. We have a new dog now, Roxie, who is a Shih-tzu. I am an animal lover, and will always have a pet!
