We called this a tuna broccoli bake, some people may call it a tuna broccoli casserole, either way, it’s a great recipe for life after weight loss surgery. Depending on how far out you are from your weight loss surgery, you may want to be careful with large chunks of broccoli. If you are just out of the puree phase and starting the soft food phase, broccoli may be a little hard to digest. So, please take it easy when trying something for the first time soon after surgery.
