CREAMY HOT TUNA DISH

While it may not be tuna casserole, this is a nice, tasty option for more variety. It is very easy to make and can be eaten several ways. It would be good with salmon instead of tuna, too.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2-5 oz cans tuna, in water, drained (Skipjack is healthiest)
  • 1/3 cup + 1 Tbsp Genesis mayo or Primal Kitchen Mayo
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup chopped red onion
  • 1/4 tsp. Pink Himalayan salt
  • 1/4 tsp. black pepper
  • 1/8-1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper (to taste, but adds more flavor)
  • 1/2 cup Gruyere, Swiss or cheese of choice, shredded (divided)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 400˚F. Mix together tuna, mayo, Dijon, onion, salt, pepper, cayenne and 1/4 cup Gruyere cheese.
  2. Transfer mixture into a small, 1-quart casserole or glass Pyrex dish. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup Gruyere cheese. Bake 15 minutes or until hot.
