Whip up a quick and easy tuna pasta bake using pantry staples for a satisfying dinner option.
Ingredients:
  • 375g dried large shell pasta
  • 250g frozen peas and beans
  • 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed, cut into 3cm pieces
  • 20.00 gm cornflour
  • 515.00 gm low-fat milk
  • 250.00 ml grated So Extra Light Tasty cheese
  • 425g can tuna in springwater, drained, flaked
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan-forced).
  • Boil pasta in a large saucepan of salted water according to package instructions until tender. Add peas, beans, and asparagus for the last 4 minutes of cooking. Save 1/2 cup of cooking liquid before draining. Place pasta back in the pan.
  • In a jug, smoothly blend cornflour with 1/2 cup of milk. Pour the rest of the milk into a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Whisk in the cornflour mixture and bring to a boil again. Cook while stirring for 1 minute until the sauce thickens. Stir in half of the cheese.
  • Mix the tuna and white sauce into the pasta, ensuring it's well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer the mixture to a greased 8-cup baking dish. Top with the remaining cheese. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
