Eating And Storage Tips

This is a great meal in terms of being quick and packing a bit of protein. If you want to add a bit more stuff in for goodness you could mix some spinach through at the end or do things like onion, mushroom and diced bell peppers in a frying pan to mix in as well.

If you want to increase the quantity of this then you absolutely can and it will go well stored in the fridge to either be reheated or simply to have cold. If you’re going to have it cold and have it as leftovers I might add something like a little bit of mayonnaise in to added moisture too.

Should you want to put a bit more time into this then you can always top it with cheese and put it in an oven friendly dish and put it into the oven for a little while. You might want to add a little bit of extra liquid in if you’re planning to do this. You can get some tomato-like seasoning packets made especially for tuna pasta bake but you could absolutely recreate that yourself.
