Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fresh tuna, cooked, OR use 2 cans of tuna in brine, drained
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen mixed vegetables, OR fresh
  • 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup, OR make from a shortcut
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons dill pickle, chopped, OR make from a shortcut
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup Bisquick Mix, OR make from a shortcut
  • 1/3 cup cold water
  • paprika, to taste

Instructions
 

  • Heat your oven to 200 C. Lightly grease a baking dish with butter.
  • In medium size saucepan, stir frozen vegetables, tuna, soup, milk, pickle, and lemon juice until well mixed. Heat over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are thawed and mixture is hot and starts to bubble. Pour into baking dish.
  • In medium bowl, stir Bisquick mix and cold water with a fork until soft dough forms; beat vigorously 30 seconds. Drop dough by 4 spoonfuls onto tuna mixture; sprinkle with paprika if desired.
  • Bake uncovered 20 to 25 minutes until biscuits are golden brown. Serve.

Notes

Using fresh tuna and the shortcut for the soup this is under 60 cents per serving for 4 servings. If using canned tuna and canned soup, this is just a bit over $1 per serving for 4 servings. Use local caught fish and use the shortcuts and fresh veggies when you can.
