Potato & Tuna Casserole

So as promised I have included yet another recipe made with tuna. For those of you who enjoy tuna I'm guessing you're pretty happy with this idea and for those of you who, like me, think it's grose I promise you this really isn't that bad. In fact, it was actually pretty good.

I decided to make something that didn't involve noodles this time around. Unfortunately the picture didn't come out as clear as it could have but what you're basically looking at is mashed potatoes with tuna and cheese. :) Try it! Here's the recipe!

Potato and Tuna Casserole

Ingredients:
* 1 pound potatoes, peeled and cubed
* 1/2 cup 2% milk
* 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
* 1.5 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese, divided
* 1 egg
* 1 (6 ounce) can chunk light tuna in water
* 1/4 cup chopped onion

1. Preheat oven to 400 F
2. In a large pot over high heat, place the potatoes with water to
cover and bring to a boil. Let boil for about 20 minutes, or until
potatoes are tender. Drain. Add the milk, Cheddar cheese and half of the Parmesan cheese.
3. Mash potatoes. Beat eggs and add, drain the tuna and stir into the
potato mixture. Then stir in the onion, and season with salt and
pepper to taste.
4. Transfer mixture to a lightly-greased 10-inch diameter glass pie plate and top with the remaining Parmesan cheese.
5. Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 45 minutes, or until golden brown.
