Have grown up with Tuna Pie. It's always our family's favorite meal. We add sliced green olives to the crust. Exclude all marjoram, but ad a touch of nutmeg and pepper to the tuna base. We also scald the milk before adding it to the tuna to help cook the egg. Smoothering it with Swiss cheese until golden brown makes it perfect.

This was really good. I didn't know what "Bake in moderate" meant, so I baked in 350 oven, and that worked fine. Also, I could only find 170 g cans of tuna, so I used less than the recipe, but it still turned out very well. The marjoram is a wonderful flavor for this.

This was OK, but not quite enough flavor for our family.

This was a really good recipe. I used it as a guideline I guess you could say. I started out fine, but ran into some problems with no ingredients on hand and had to change somethings. But all in all it is a good recipe. The good thing about this is you can use any filling you like. I did use the tuna, however next time I may try chicken with salsa :)
