olive oil

capers

garlic

salt

In large serving bowl, combine roasted red peppers, tuna, parsley, olive oil, capers, garlic, and salt and pepper.


Drain pasta. Toss immediately with tuna mixture.


Very good and easy to take as a lunch because it doesn't need refrigeration. However there's not enough tuna in recipe--it could easily be doubled or tripled. If you do this do not add the salt because canned tuna already is salty. I've also used cubed cooked chicken breasts which also is excellent.

Love this meal! So very simple and delicious. Especially love making it in the spring/summer since the only cooking is the pasta. Thank you! (Been making this for years and am just now rating...yum!)

I was thrilled to have all of the ingredients on hand. I liked it far better than my husband. Sorry I won't be making this again.

This is an excellent quick and easy light supper recipe. I did make a few additions. I roasted the red pepper in the oven along with yellow and orange pepper and some summer squash and I added a fresh diced tomato a squeeze lemon juice and some grated asiago cheese. But I usually look at recipes as ideas to jump start the creative cooking process anyways and this was a great one to work off of and custamize.

This is a great quick meal I like it with more peppersa nd capers.

Very good tasty and simple. I did modify the recipe a bit to adjust it to our personal taste: we're big garlicg fans so we used 3 cloves thinly sliced and also added piquillo roasted peppers (if you like red peppers and happen to find a jar of this please try them...piquillos grow in the northern part of Spain and are possibly the best roasted peppers I ever tried). Thanks for sharing this is a great and very easy recipe.

I thought this recipe was easy and good.  I added half of a large onion, diced, and I didn't use the exact spices.  I used garlic salt, dried parsley, and dried Italian seasoning with the peppers, tuna and pasta.  I will make this again!

Tuna isn't that great in a hot dish but I wanted to try this and it turned out pretty good. I didn't add the capers but wish I had cuz it needed a pop of flavor. I also added a chopped tomato and some Italian seasoning. I'm thinking some sauteed onion would be nice too. I used fresh garlic which I did not saute and think it would be less strong and better if I had.
