Today I want to show you how you can easily and without much hassle prepare a delicious, healthy and nutritious lunch or dinner for the whole family in just 15 - 20 minutes. Moreover, for this it is not at all necessary to run around the shops with heavy bags, but it is enough to have a “golden reserve” in the household - a pack of pasta, a can of canned tomatoes and a couple of cans of tuna. I believe everyone has cheese and sour cream in their refrigerator, and even if not, you can do without them. By the way, sour cream in this dish can be replaced with cream of any fat content. In general, we cooked the pasta, opened it and mixed the contents of the canned food in a frying pan - and now a delicious and slightly unusual tuna pasta is ready.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 250 g sour cream
  • 3 – 4 cloves of garlic
  • 1 tbsp. l. honey
  • 2 tbsp. l. olive oil
  • 80 g parmesan
  • salt, pepper, sweet paprika

COOKING METHOD:

1. To prepare pasta with tuna, peel the garlic and cut into thin slices.

2. Drain the liquid from the canned tuna and mash it with a fork, not too much, so that shaped pieces remain.

Advice! When choosing canned food, shake the jar and listen so that nothing in it gurgles or dangles too much, then there is a high probability that the fish in it will turn out to be one large piece, and not crumbs of unknown origin. Canned tuna intended for salads is not suitable for this dish.

3. Heat olive oil in a frying pan, add garlic and cook for 2 - 3 minutes over medium heat until lightly browned and a strong aroma appears.


4. Add canned chopped tomatoes and honey, stir and cook for 5 minutes.

During the ripening season, you can use fresh tomatoes, which must first be scalded with boiling water and peeled, then cut into small cubes.


5. Add mashed canned tuna, stir and cook for 2 minutes.

6. Add sour cream, salt and spices and simmer over low heat for 5 minutes. The tuna pasta sauce is ready!

7. While the sauce is preparing, cook any pasta according to package instructions, drain the water, and leave the pasta in a large saucepan.


8. Pour the tuna sauce into the pasta and mix everything gently but thoroughly.


The original and very easy to prepare tuna pasta is ready! When serving, you can sprinkle it with grated Parmesan to your taste. Bon appetit!

How to make diet tuna pasta

Pasta with canned tuna is a very satisfying and nutritious dish, but at the same time, oddly enough, it has a low calorie content - only 139 kcal per 100 g. This is due to the fact that the proteins that fish is rich in and complex carbohydrates that enter the body from pasta are digested very slowly in the intestines, providing us with a feeling of fullness for a long time. And this dish does not contain much fat, which is the main source of calories.

Therefore, you can eat tuna pasta every day without harm to your health and figure. However, this statement only holds true when using pasta made from durum wheat, which contains fewer calories and more healthy fiber than pasta made from bread flour. In addition, you can reduce the calorie content of this dish if you cook it without adding vegetable oil, with minimal fat sour cream (10%) and a small amount of cheese.

In Italy, pasta is often served for dinner. It can be long spaghetti and small “feathers” or “shells”. They are made with all sorts of sauces – meat, fish, vegetables. The sauce adds its own unique taste to the recipe and can make the dish either light and vegetarian or hearty, dense, and rich. If you don't have fresh fish or vegetables on hand to make the sauce, you can make tuna pasta - these cans are easy to buy at any supermarket. Tuna meat has a delicate taste and contains many nutritional elements; it is even compared to steamed veal.

Recipe 7, step by step: pasta with tuna and tomatoes

Very tasty pasta with canned tuna, tomatoes in their own juice and cheese. A very tasty and appetizing dish. And, which is of great importance for me, a working wife and mother, such pasta is prepared literally in a matter of minutes, i.e. can be safely included in the quick fix section. So if you are dreaming of a hearty dinner, but don’t want to spend the whole evening at the stove, you will also really like this recipe - pasta with tuna and tomatoes.

  • 150-200 g paste;
  • 1 can of canned tuna (185 g);
  • 2 tomatoes in their own juice;
  • 40 g hard cheese;
  • salt;
  • greens for decoration.

I'll start with the main thing - the pasta. In principle, it can be any pasta: farfalle (butterfly-shaped), penne (tubes with edges cut diagonally), and fusilli (spring-shaped pasta) - the shape depends solely on your preferences. What I like most is spaghetti - it’s familiar, simple and always available: spaghetti is sold in any store, even the smallest. But I always pay attention to the composition and try to buy pasta made from durum wheat: firstly, it is stronger and holds its shape well without turning into a sticky mass during cooking, secondly, it is low in calories, and thirdly, it contains fiber ( and this is very good for digestion) and B vitamins (they are responsible for our nervous system).

Place a pan of water on the fire and bring to a boil. The amount of water is determined at the rate of at least 1 liter per 100 grams of pasta. Add salt to the water when it boils.

Place the pasta in boiling water. If you, like me, use spaghetti, then you can break it before putting it in the pan, or not break it, but carefully lower one side into the water, wait a little until the spaghetti in the water becomes soft, and press lightly with your hand or spoon the ends of spaghetti sticking out of the water so that they also end up in the water. Be sure to stir the paste with a spoon after adding it to the water. You can read on the packaging how long you need to cook your pasta - the cooking time is different for different types of pasta.

While the spaghetti (or the pasta you chose) is cooking, we will have time to prepare the tuna and tomato sauce for it. Place the frying pan on the fire. Please note that there is no need to pour oil into the pan.

For the pasta we will need canned tuna - it can be either in oil or in its own juice - to your taste. For this dish, I take chopped tuna for salads, and if you have a large piece of tuna, you need to mash it with a fork - it’s very easy and quick to do.

Tomatoes in their own juice can be either without skin or with skin. In the latter case, I advise you to carefully remove the skin. If you are preparing this dish during the tomato season, you can use fresh ones. But first scald them with boiling water, make a cross-shaped cut on the surface and also remove the skin.

Cut the tomatoes into small cubes with a side of up to 1 cm. The tomatoes will release a lot of juice - this is normal.

Place the tuna in a heated frying pan.

Add tomatoes and the juice they released when slicing to the tuna.

Mix the tuna and tomatoes and leave for a few minutes in a frying pan over low heat. Please note that we do not fry or stew tomatoes and tuna, but heat them together in a frying pan.

Grate the cheese on a medium or fine grater. Any hard cheese is suitable for this recipe. It turns out very tasty with Parmesan, but more affordable varieties like “Russian” or “Dutch” will be good.

Our pasta should be ready by now. Place it in a colander and let the water drain.

Place the pasta in a deep bowl.

Add tuna and tomatoes to the pasta.

Then add grated cheese.

And stir quickly and quickly so that the cheese melts evenly and does not seize in one big lump.

Finely chop the greens. It can be parsley, green onions, or basil - to your taste.

Place the pasta with tuna and tomatoes on a plate, sprinkle with herbs and serve.

Bon appetit!

Pasta with canned tuna and tomatoes is a simple and nutritious dish. It is ideal for dinner, especially if you need to quickly and tasty feed your family. Use only durum wheat for cooking pasta. They do not contain fat, so they will not affect your figure.

Ingredients:

durum wheat spaghetti 250 g

canned tuna in oil 160 g

onion 1 head

garlic 3 cloves

tomatoes (canned in their own juice or fresh) 4-5 pcs.

canned green olives 80 g

hot red pepper 1 pc.

tomato sauce or ketchup 1 tbsp. l.

olive oil 3 tbsp. l.

salt 1 tbsp. l.

mixture of peppers to taste

Italian herbs 1 tsp.

fresh herbs (basil or parsley) small bunch

Number of servings: 4 Cooking time: 30 minutes


Recipe

    Step 1: Cook pasta until done

    Spaghetti and other curly pasta products are suitable for this recipe. The main thing is that they are made from durum wheat. Pour 3 liters of purified water into a deep, large saucepan. Place the pan on the fire and cover with a lid so that the water heats up faster. When the water boils, add half a tablespoon of table salt and a full tablespoon of oil (I used odorless sunflower oil). The oil will help prevent the spaghetti from sticking together.

    Place the pasta in boiling water. Bring the water to a boil again and reduce the heat. Boil the pasta until tender, following the instructions on the package.

    Carefully drain the hot water from the finished pasta. There is no need to rinse cooked spaghetti.

    Step 2: Fry onions with garlic and red pepper

    While the spaghetti is cooking, prepare the sauce with canned tuna. To do this, first peel and wash the onion and a few cloves of garlic. Finely chop both ingredients.

    Wash the red pepper. Let's remove the seeds, since almost all the bitterness is concentrated in them. Cut the pod into thin rings. The amount of pepper can be adjusted according to your taste. I used about half a pod as I like spicy food. Heat a little olive oil in a deep frying pan. It works best for this recipe. Then add chopped onion and hot red pepper rings.

    Fry the mixture for a few minutes, then add finely chopped garlic cloves to it.

    Fry all ingredients for another minute. At this stage, you can remove the pepper rings from the frying pan; they have already imparted their spiciness to the dish. I decided to leave it so that the pasta with canned tuna would turn out more appetizing and spicier.

    Step 3: Chop the tomatoes and add to the fried onions and garlic

    Tomatoes must be peeled. I used canned vegetables in their own juice, so peeling them was not too difficult. If you are using fresh tomatoes, then make a cross-shaped shallow cut on top of each vegetable. Now put the tomatoes in boiling water for one minute. Then carefully remove them from the water and clean them. Finely chop the peeled tomatoes.

    Add them along with the juice to the sautéed onions and garlic. Mix thoroughly and continue frying the mixture of ingredients.

    Step 4: Add natural tomato paste and spices

    When the excess water from the pan has evaporated a little and the sauce has thickened, add tomato paste to it. You can also use natural ketchup for the recipe.

    Mix everything carefully. Add salt and a mixture of Italian herbs (rosemary, oregano, cumin) for flavor. Season everything with a mixture of red, black and green pepper.

    Step 5: Add Canned Tuna

    You can use tuna canned in vegetable oil or in its own juice. Drain the liquid and shred the fish with a fork. Add fish pieces to the sauce. Stir and continue cooking the dish over low heat, stirring occasionally.

    Step 6: Add Green Olives

    After the fish, add pitted olives to the rest of the ingredients. They will give pasta with canned tuna a piquant taste. Olives can be added whole or cut into slices. You can use black olives instead of green olives.

    Step 7: Add greens and cook until done

    If the finished pasta sauce is thick, you can dilute it a little with the water in which the pasta was cooked.

    Step 8: Mix pasta with spaghetti

    Now combine the pasta with canned tuna. I mixed the ingredients together, you can pour the finished pasta with tomato sauce on top. Decorate the finished dish with aromatic parsley or basil.

    Step 9: Feed

    We will serve the pasta immediately after cooking, until the dish has cooled. You can sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top of the spaghetti.

    Bon appetit!

Quick-to-cook pasta with a delicious creamy sauce topped with canned tuna is the perfect weeknight meal. It's quick to prepare, it's tasty and satisfying and will leave everyone in the family happy. The eldest daughter, who recently has been actively trying to ignore fish in any form, ate such pasta with great pleasure. But the love for pasta is stronger than a temporary dislike for fish :-). And there are many tasty additions here, with which tuna, despite its expressive taste, harmoniously merges.

If you want to experiment, you can add basil instead of parsley. Additionally, crushed capers and finely grated lemon zest can be served with the dish.

If you don’t like the distinct taste of garlic in dishes, add it all at once, along with the onions, and not, as I did, in two stages.

Ingredients

  • 200 grams short pasta
  • 1 medium onion, cut into cubes
  • 4 cloves garlic, squeezed
  • 30 ml olive oil
  • 200 grams cherry tomatoes, each cut in half
  • 1 can of canned tuna in its own juice
  • 150 ml cream 30%
  • Salt to taste
  • 1/2 bunch of parsley, finely chopped
  • 30 grams of hard cheese (Parmesan, Grana Padano), finely grated

1) Heat olive oil in a large frying pan. Add onion and half the garlic. Add salt to taste and simmer, stirring, over medium heat until the onion is soft.

2) Add cherry tomatoes and fry for another 2 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften.

3) Simultaneously with stewing the vegetables, boil the pasta until tender in a large amount of salted water, as indicated on the package. Strain, reserving 150 ml of the pasta cooking liquid.

4) Add tuna to the onions and tomatoes along with the juices. Heat everything together, stirring and breaking up large pieces of tuna.

5) Add cream, remaining garlic and 100 ml of water in which pasta was cooked. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
