Been making this for years, however the addition of cheese made it so much better, thanks to the idea from Thea Pappalardo, and onions thanks to LeAnna. This was the best tuna casserole that I ever made hands down. Sometimes when you talk about how to make things, other people just come up with the best ideas!
