Pasta and tuna pesto salad
Recipe: be as busy as humanly possible all day - look in cupboards - panic - boil pasta, open some jars and a tin or two, chop some stuff and mix. So pasta - shells, because, why not? Farfalle would be OK, and penne or other shortish types, but probably not long pasta, or sheets. Jars - roasted peppers, pesto, mayonnaise (lower fat), gherkins, olives: chop - red onion, tomato, cucumber & stuff from jars that needed to be in smaller pieces (gherkin, peppers, olives). Chuck handful of frozen peas into pasta - bring back to boil. Open tin of tuna, drain, chuck into mixed vegetables - add big splodge of mayonnaise, add drained pasta and stir all together with a nice fresh grind of black pepper on top. Victim didn't say much, but ate it all. I enjoyed mine. Some left for lunch tomorrow - result!
