Healthy tuna pasta recipe

Healthy tuna pasta recipe

After eating out over the weekend, I was looking for a simple and healthy home cooked meal for the whole family including my little one. Tuna pasta naturally came to my mind. After searching through my fridge, I actually found a few good ingredients to make it a one pot pasta meal. This is an easy yet nutritious recipe. Look! It's colourful too!

Recipe:

(4 servings)

1-2 onions - chopped and diced.
1 red capsicum - diced.
2 carrots - cut into the shape you like.
2 cans tuna - remove the water or oil.
2 bunches of baby broccoli - cut into shorter stems.
500g pasta

2 tablespoons olive oil
Parsley flakes
Salt
Pepper

1. Cook pasta and carrots in a pot of boiling water with some salt until soft.

2. While boiling the pasta, heat olive oil in a frying pan. Add in onions and red capsicum. Stir fry until the onions are a bit soft.

3. Add in tuna and mix well.

4. When the pasta and carrots are soft, add the baby broccoli to the boiling water (just to scald the veg). Drain the hot water.

5. Add the pasta, carrots and baby broccoli to the frying pan and stir well.

6. Sprinkle parsley flakes all over the pasta. Add salt and pepper to taste and mix well.

7. Dish out and serve.
