This vintage tuna casserole-style main dish combines tuna, cream of chicken soup, green pepper, and milk in a baked dish topped with cheese swirls made from biscuit dough and pimento cheese. Recipes like this became especially popular during the 1950s and 1960s, when home cooks stretched pantry staples into hearty family meals with a little extra presentation.
