Lemon Pepper Tuna over Pasta

It's light, spicy, filling and good for you.

Ingredients:

  • 1 4.5 oz pouch of Starkist Lemon Pepper Tuna
  • 8 oz. angel hair pasta
  • 1/2 tsp. minced garlic
  • 1 cup frozen veggies, like beans or corn
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 sliced red pepper
  • dash of thyme

Directions:

Boil the pasta, drain, and toss back into the pot. Keep heat on low.

At the same time, using a medium skillet, heat oil and cook peppers and garlic for 1-2 minutes.

Add tuna, thyme, and green beans or corn (any veggie will work, but peppers work best). Add skillet contents to tuna. Toss and heat on low covered for 1 minute.

Serves 2 or two dinners separate.

This meal is only about 10% of your daily sodium and has 0 saturated fats. It also provides 15% Vitamin D, 50% of Vitamin B12, and has 25% protein.

Plus, it's very very good!

Yummo! I don't have lemon pepper tuna packets on hand but I do have some lemon pepper to add to the plain pouched tuna on hand ;-) Will definitely give this recipe a try :-)
