I was hungry, and this was in the pantry. I was well pleased with the results. This is healthy, light and easy. I would have added 1 T of fresh basil and/or oregano if it had been on hand. Be careful to just heat the tuna, not to cook it or the texture will become tough. I used Kirkland solid white tuna (my favorite) but would have used Italian solid light tuna or tonno packed in olive oil if I had had it Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 small onion |
2 garlic cloves |
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
2 tablespoons capers |
1/2 cup olive |
2 (6 ounce) cans tuna |
1 lb pasta |
Directions:
1. While water and pasta is boiling.
2. Chop onion and garlic and sautee with olive oil in sauce pan until translucent.
3. Add tomatos, sugar, with salt, pepper and pepper flakes to taste.
4. Bring to a boil then simmer for 10 minutes.
5. Add Capers and Olives simmer for 5 minutes more.
6. Flake the tuna then add to the sauce and simmer until heated through.
7. Serve over pasta with parmesean cheese.
