I cleaned out my pantry this weekend. This was a VERY long overdue task. I threw out anything that I thought was too old and reorganized what was left. In the process, I discovered that I had duplicates of LOTS of stuff. Apparently, I’ve been buying canned tuna and hiding it in the back of the pantry without remembering it. I like having a can or two around (I’ll post my Tuna Melt recipe sometime soon – it’s actually quite yummy), but I had 7 cans in there! I poked around on epicurious, trying to find a good way to use up the surplus. This recipe looked like a really good possibility. It looked quick, healthy, simple and fairly kid-friendly. A couple of the reviewers recommended adding a bit of sun-dried tomato and/or green peas. That sounded good to me, so I added both. I used whole-wheat penne pasta. The tuna that I use (and had so many cans of) is water-packed white albacore (not the oil-packed that the recipe suggested). I actually liked this quite a bit, but it wasn’t a big hit with Boy and Girl. I think there was a bit too much lemon in it for them, so if I make it again, I might leave out the lemon juice and zest and just add a bit of vinegar, instead. I didn’t add the cheese, etiher, and that may have made the kids enjoy it more. Not an absolute home run, but definitely not bad. It was VERY easy to throw together and that’s never a bad thing. Thing would be a good dish to take to a potluck or on a picnic.
