Tuna Shepherd s Pie Preparation
This was my Mom”s recipe…I still make it today, and everyone always loves it. It”s a bit different… no noodles…it”s more like a tuna shepherd”s pie. It”s simple, but the flavors blend together nicely and it really does taste wonderful. I usually serve it just with celery and carrot sticks and some crusty rolls. (make the mashed potatoes with at least a little butter or margarine along with the milk…this allows them to brown nicely-I find using 3-4 large potatoes makes enough for this…depends on how thick you like them) paprika Spray an 8” baking dish (or 1 1/2 to 2 qt casserole) with Pam. Gently mix tuna with peas & carrots, mushrooms if using, and just enough mayo to help bind it together. Press into the baking dish. Top with cooked mashed potatoes. Using hte back of a tablespoon, press down & up quickly along the potatoes to make little waves (doing this make it look nice, and makes little peaks that brown and crisp a bit). Sprinkle with paprika, and bake at 350 about 35-40 minutes, or until tuna mixture is bubbly.
