Easy Tuna Pasta | Itaki Pro Electric Lunch Box Recipe
Easy Tuna Pasta | Itaki Pro Electric Lunch Box Recipe
This is a recipe for those times when you realized that the fridge is empty or when you are too tired to be bothered with chopping up ingredients. No seasoning of meat or making a sauce. This simple recipe just needs raw pasta and a can of tuna. The rest of the ingredients are all optional. I used the Korean Hot Pepper tuna because I like it's taste and the hot pepper sauce give the pasta the flavor it needs. I like to keep a few cans of these tuna in my pantry for one of those days. You can use any other types of tuna available to you as long as you add flavor or pasta sauce that you like. Simple as it is, this is still a nice pipping hot meal to have for lunch at the office. I would take this over a sandwich any day. Enjoy your lunch!
