Tuna With Calico Corn Muffins

Last year my daughter bought me some vintage cookbooks and I love going through them to find different recipes to try. This recipe came from Betty Crocker's Dinner in a Dish, published in 1965. It's a different and tasty tuna casserole!

Ingredients

• 2 (10 ounce) packages  frozen broccoli spears
• 2 (6 1/2ounce) cans tuna
• 1 (8 1/2ounce) package  cornbread mix

• 1⁄4 cup  chopped red bell pepper

Directions

1. Cook the broccoli 5 minutes; drain well. Lay broccoli spears in a 9x13 baking dish.
2. Drain the tuna. Cover the broccoli in the dish with the tuna.
3. Put the cornbread mix in a medium bowl. Stir in the salt, sage, mustard, green pepper, and red pepper. Add the milk and egg and stir until combined.
