  • 125.00 ml frozen peas

  • Boil pasta in salted water as per packet instructions, adding peas and broccolini for the last 2 minutes. Drain and return everything to the pan.

  • Combine tuna, fresh lemon juice, spinach, and 1/2 cup of cheese, stirring well. Cook on medium heat for 2 minutes or until heated through. Mix tuna blend into the pasta, and season generously with salt and pepper. Stir thoroughly to ensure all flavors are evenly blended.
