Ingredients

Servings
  • 17 oz pasta farfalle, fusilli, penne, rigatoni
  • 7 oz cherry tomatoes halved
  • 2 cans tuna chunks well drained
  • 1 can sweetcorn drained
  • herbs basil, thyme, mint, handful, chopped, fresh

  • extra virgin olive oil to taste

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.
  2. When water is boiling, add pasta and cook until "al dente" ( 2 mins earlier than what the package instruction say).
  3. Meanwhile, add all ingredients into a large serving bowl, and season with salt and pepper to taste and a splash of Extravirgin olive oil.
  4. Drain pasta and allow to cool slightly ( you can add a little olive oil so that pasta doesn't become sticky).
  5. Add the pasta into the bowl, mix very well and serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to eat. Enjoy!
