Chilli Tuna Pasta

Chilli Tuna Pasta has a good jingle to it doesn’t it LOL.

Thought I’d share one of my homemade recipes that I make up in batches and freeze for when I need them. This is one of my absolute favourite dishes that I have no later than lunch (probably twice a week). It has no fat and is packed with protein and carbs! - It’s delicious
It’s really simple to make too. All you need is:

• 2 tins diced tomatoes
• 1-2 teaspoons chopped chilli depending on how hot you want it (I use the masterfoods chilli paste in the jar)
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 1 425gm tin/can tuna (in springwater), drained
• 250gm pasta
• Pepper, salt & herbs to taste (I don’t use salt but put a bit of cracked pepper in and some basil - about 1/2 teaspoon of each)

AND - don’t forget the spinach LOL!

While the pasta is cooking, slowly bring the tomatoes, garlic, chilli and herbs to the boil and then turn down to a simmer. Keep the sauce on simmer for about 10 minutes. Drain the tuna and stir through the sauce (that’s the sauce done LOL). Once the pasta is cooked, drain and mix in with the sauce. Will make 4 serves.

How easy is that!! Let me know if you ever make a batch and what you think of it

I had the gym to myself today - it was great - didn’t have to wait for anyone to finish their sets - so just strutted around like I owned the place LOL. Got through my program so quickly it almost felt like I had cheated or something and I needed to do more. Ended up doing an extra set of preacher curls. By the time I left there were only 3 other people there (and that included a trainer!). Got a compliment today, they are always nice to get. I didn’t get to do a huge run though for my cardio session which was a bit of a bummer. My sister wasn’t going to gym and my son had cricket so I thought I’d hop on the treadmill at home, only to have it jar and slip every few steps so only managed to do 1.5kms. I suppose it’s better than nothing.
