A simple and nutritious gourmet-style dinner. Easy to prepare, and a delicious mix of flavors, this is sure to please. You can use any type of whole wheat pasta but we prefer to use basil pasta. Pair it with a great white wine and you've got a classic romantic dinner at home. Ingredients:
1/2 lb whole wheat pasta (best with basil pasta) |
1/2 cup fresh pesto sauce |
1 cup organic chickpeas |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 (6 ounce) can tuna |
1 teaspoon freshly grated black pepper |
1 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Prepare pasta and drain.
2. Return pasta to pot, add olive oil and mix to keep the noodles from sticking.
3. Toss noodles with pesto, tuna, and chickpeas until combined and warm.
4. Season with black pepper, kosher salt and parmesean cheese.
