Enjoyed by the whole family. I drizzled some white vinegar over mine for a little zing. Will definitely be making it again. -
This was fairly good, but very dry. When I heat it for dinner tonite, I'll add butter and see if that helps. Otherwise, maybe doubling the sauce would work. -
Chelsea, this was delicious,and looking over your other recipes you seem to be a switched on cook for such a young lady. well done and congrats. -
Make sure to use the right amount of tuna, I'm not sure how many cans of tuna 425g is per the recipe but I used one of those predrained pouches and it didn't seem to be enough.

I currently live in New Zealand, but was born in America and I have lived in Singapore too. So I've pretty much traveled the world.
