It was supposed to be a supreme tuna melt:

Barley, chickpeas a.k.a. garbanzo beans, dry spinach leaves, chopped tomato, and shredded cheddar cheese with spices added.

I baked it in the oven for about half an hour and then realized I'd forgotten to put the tuna in it. So I got the tuna, laid it onto a plate, and plopped the casserole thing on top of the tuna pile. Good enough.
