  1. Mix all ingredients except crescent roll dough.
  2. Open 1 can of the crescent rolls on waxed paper and roll dough to cover bottom on a baking dish for the lower crust.

  4. Roll out the other can of dough (won't use all) and make 1/2 inch strips to form a lattice pattern on top of the tuna like a pie.
