Pasta with Tuna and Tomato Sauce


Sometimes, a meal made of canned goods is the way to go.


You know those days: when you're feeling lazy; the vegetables look sad and wilted at the grocery store because we're on our eleventy month of winter; you don't think you can do another dish of root vegetables.

(I will admit to eating mashed sweet potatoes and nothing else as a meal and do not regret it.)


This is one of my favourite pasta dishes because it contains:
  • Anchovies, which gets a bad reputation but adds so much depth to a dish.
  • Tuna, because who doesn't love tuna? (A list of sustainably sourced tuna is listed here.)
  • Pasta. I love pasta, so much that I think it would be the last thing I would eat before dying (though I have the right to change my mind at any time). Note to self: stop buying gluten-free pasta because it lacks the al dente goodness and hence, is terrible and not worth eating. Life is too short to go gluten-free (unless necessary).
