Cable Car Tuna Casserole

I first encountered this recipe over 10 years ago while visiting a friend. It was my first tuna casserole and I fell in love. I copied from his cookbook and promptly lost it a few months later. I have been searching for this recipe ever since! It is sooooo creamy and delicious. The sharp cheddar cheese gives it a nice bite. I don't care for almonds on/in my food so I skip that but everything else is the same. This will make the most anti-tuna casserole person fall in love with the dish! YUMMMMMMMMMY!
