Directions
- Cook pasta according to package directions. While pasta is cooking prepare the vegetables.
- Melt butter over high heat in a heavy saucepan. Sauté mushrooms until brown. Lower heat to medium, add olive oil, garlic, onions, asparagus and peppers, and season to taste. Sauté for 3-5 minutes or until softened.
- Turn the heat down to low, add the cooked pasta and fold in tuna, herbs and lemon juice. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
Tips and Tricks
For a saucier dish add 3 cups of Authentica Siciliana Pasta Sauce.
Make this a seasonal favourite by substituting in-season vegetables for the mushrooms, peppers, and asparagus.
For an even more sustainable choice, use Ocean’s Pole & Line Chunk Light Tuna.
