## Pasta salad with tuna

Here in the Netherlands, the temperatures are dropping, and the leaves are changing. It's almost winter here, but somewhere in the world, it is summer right now.

So it's okay to share this summer dish with you.
Even in the colder winter months, you could eat this meal.

You can try it as a side dish, and why not as a main course because you can enjoy cold and lukewarm.


Preperation Time: 20 - 30 minutes


## Ingredients:

200 g Fusilli (some other pasta is also possible)

150 g Haricots verts (fresh or canned, cut in half)

150 g Cherry tomatoes

½ Red onion

One can of tuna in oil (drained)

One tablespoon of lemon juice (fresh or bottled)

Two tablespoons of yogurt mayonnaise or regular mayonnaise

Two cloves of garlic

jar of anchovies (drained)

Sometimes, I also add some olives and sliced boiled eggs.


Directions:

  1. Boil the pasta until al dente (in my case, that takes about 8 minutes)

  2. Add the haricot verts in the last 2 minutes of this boiling process.

3. Drain the pasta and haricots vert.
  1. We need to rinse with some cold water to cool it off.

  2. You can cut the onions into small cubes utilizing your time.

6. Drain the tuna.
7. Slice the anchovies into little parts.
8. We clean two cloves of garlic and crush them. You need to press and add them to the bowl of pasta.
  1. Now, you can include all the other ingredients. Please give it a good stir after each element you add.
  1. Two spoons of (yogurt-) mayonnaise
  1. Add the chopped onion.
  1. The tuna and anchovies
  1. And finally, the tablespoon of lemon juice
14. Give it all another good mix, and then you are almost ready.
  1. Before serving, add the cherry tomatoes (and it's also possible to include some slices of olives & wedges of cooked eggs.)

Serve this pasta salad cold or lukewarm.
If you don't eat it right away, it will keep very well in the refrigerator (think about 3/4 days).

You will agree that this recipe is quick, easy, simple, and fast.
