New recipe!
Someone else can give this a try and tell me if it turns out as well for them as it did for me :)
So I was hungry and had very few random things in the fridge. This is what I put together (based loosely on a craving I had for tuna casserole):
*1 1/2 cups of rotini pasta, cooked al dente, drained
*olive oil
*1 small can of tomato sauce
*1 can of water packed tuna (drained)
*1 tbsp of capers (drained)
*1 small can of baby peas
*1 tsp of dried basil
*1 tsp of red curry paste
*shredded mozzerella, to taste
*flavored bread crumbs
*salt and pepper
*all measurements are approximations
1. In a large pan, heat some olive oil (barely enough to coat) over medium-high heat. Add the can of tuna and sautee for a couple of minutes.
2. Add the can of tomato sauce and capers. Add salt and pepper. Heat this mixture through over a medium-low heat.
3. Add the red curry paste and keep it moving till incorporated.
4. Add the dried basil and peas.
5. Add the pasta to the pan and turn the heat down to low. Mix it all together so the pasta turns red.
6. Add mozzerella and bread crumbs so it's kind of chunky.
Enjoy!
I would substitute red onion for the capers (if I had any). I would sautee them with the tuna until they were a little soft. Then continue sans capers.
Also, I'm not sure the bread crumbs were necessary. It made it kind of pasty, which was actually kind of good, but I think that the cheese would've been sufficient to do that.
Thoughts?
