Tuna Casserole

Ma’ayan once had told me that  whoever stays at home, works harder.
Well, I had my doubts. I spent a lot of time with her, hanging out together.  I did not really understand what all the fuss was about. OK, you have a baby at home- big deal.

When my baby was born, my mom came to the US for a month. She took care of him all day long. This gave me plenty of time to rest, and to do everything around the house.

Today, when I drink my coffee cold, when I don’t have time to eat, and that I find myself brushing my teeth with one hand and holding my little guy in the other, I realize that Maayan was right.

I always try to cook enough food that I would not have to deal with it during the week, because I really cannot find time to change into normal clothes from my pajamas in the morning.

But if somehow I planned it wrong and we do not have food left in the middle of the week, I prepare this tuna casserole. It is made of 4 ingredients only, that can be found in every household and it can be baked in the microwave too, minimum work, suitable for lunch and kids love it.
