NEXT RECIPE:  SEAFARER'S PASTA SALAD

RAPID PASTA (BECKY'S PASTA) 
Pasta (half a pan)
1 tin Tuna
Cheese to taste
1 tin Sweet corn
Virgin Olive Oil
Oregano
Pepper
Water

Add a "dash" of virgin olive oil and a generous pinch of oregano to a pan of water. Bring to the boil.

Add Pasta (two handfuls per person), be aware that pasta expands and that your pan is big enough.

Lower heat to a simmer. When the pasta is soft (about 20 mins), turn off the heat, drain the pasta, and leave in the pan. If the pan is not big enough to stir the contents, move the pasta to large mixing bowl.

Drain any fluids from the Tuna and Sweet corn cans, then add to the pasta. Stir to ensure the tuna breaks up. Add a sprinkle of pepper. Spoon onto plates. Grate cheese onto the top and serve.

Instead of Tuna and Sweet corn try these variations:

Sausage and Tomato (throw in a can of pasta sauce or canned tomatoes works too).

Bacon and Sweet corn.

Ham and Pineapple.

This is a nice "fast food" alternative to less healthier alternatives, and my daughter loves it!
