A restaurant is how I found out I liked them too. Growing up my
experience with tuna was the casserole similar to the recipes with
cans posted here. So I hated it. Reading this thread this morning
got me thinking I might like the casserole made with better
ingredients. I had almost a full pound of mushrooms and lots of
celery, so I've got soup going. Who knows what I'll end up doing with
it, but at least we'll have some soup. <g> A also added finely
chopped carrot and a big beautiful shallot. Maybe the soup will be
enough. I dunno.
