I am sharing this recipe from Real Simple because it is a great use for canned tuna and doesn't require many ingredients. Adding vegetables to this dish would be a great way to really balance out the meal. Another substitution I would recommend trying is using whole wheat linguine.
Ingredients: 12 ounces linguine (3/4 box) 3 tablespoons olive oil 4 cloves garlic, sliced 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper 2 6-ounce cans oil-packed tuna 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest salt and pepper 1/2 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
Directions: 1. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water; drain the pasta. 2. Wipe our the pasta pot and cook the oil, garlic, and red pepper over medium heat, stirring frequently, until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. 3. Add the pasta, tuna, lemon zest, 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and the reserved pasta water to the pasta pot and cook over low heat, tossing, until the sauce is slightly thickened and coats the pasta, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the parsley and toss to combine.
