I was very much looking forward to this, but it ended up awfully dry and rather bland. It needs something to make it creamier.

This had a really good taste. I think I might use onion powder in place of the minced onion next time for a smoother texture.

This was very tasty and really easy. I made the mix up the other day (used black pepper but made no other changes) and today made a serving for my lunch. As I also had 1/2 a can of baby shrimp to use, I mixed those in - in place of the tuna mentioned. Used skim milk to make the sauce and served over whole wheat spaghetti. It took less than 20 minutes to have a nice hot & healthy lunch ready (10 minutes to boil water, 7 to cook the spaghetti & sauce, simultaneously). Thanks so much for the recipe!
