A flavor fusion of a tuna melt with mac and cheese!

• 1 12oz can Albacore Solid Tuna
• 2-3 Ribs of Celery Diced
• 1/2 Onion Minced
• 2 Tbsp Dried Parsley
• 2 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
• 1 Lemon juiced
• 1 Pound Pasta (Cavatappi, Rigatoni, Penne)
• 1 Stick of Butter
• 3 Tbsp Flour
• 2 1/2 Cups Milk
• 2 Cups Shredded White Cheddar
• Salt and Pepper
• 1 1/2 cups Panko breadcrumbs
• 1/2 Cup Grated Parmesan

Method-

Combine tuna, celery, onion, parsley, Dijon, and lemon juice in a large bowl.
In a small sauce pot, melt 4 tbsp of butter and add the flour. Mix until smooth and add milk. Bring to a simmer stirring often. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add sauce to tuna mixture, breaking up the tuna just a little.
Cook the pasta al dente (until almost done). Drain and add it to the bowl. Add the cheese and mix well while still hot.
Melt the remaining butter in a sauté pan. Add breadcrumbs and parm. Toss and stir until just turning golden brown.
Spray a 9×13 pan and place the tuna mixture inside. Top with breadcrumb mixture and bake uncovered at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
