Really liked this recipe! My rice absorbed a lot of the liquid, and I let it stand before cutting, so it was more of a slice than a casserole. I used cheddar cheese out of preference, and we don't easily get pimentos in Australia so I left them out. Add some tabasco. Will make this again as a different way of serving what my mum always called "tuna and rice".

Sorry no picture of this wonderful recipe at this time, it was eaten before I could even get the camera out. I promise I will be making this again, and will break the arm of the first person who touches it before I get the picture. This is really delicious and who would have ever thought to use rice in a Tuna casserole? I am so very glad I tried this and Thank You so much for sharing it.
