I made this one with 2 lemon pepper tuna (from Starkist) pouches pictured below!
Directions:
Cook 2 cups dry pasta-I used Dreamfields Rotini (just under cook it according to the directions because you are then going to bake it) I love Dreamfields pasta-it is a smart way to eat pasta because it is high in protein and fiber too!
Add the drained pasta to your casserole dish filled with tuna, 1 small can reduced sodium cream of celery, one c skim or almond milk, 1/2 c chopped green pepper, 1/2 c chopped celery, 1/3 c chopped onion, the juice if one half lemon, season with parsley, garlic powder, pepper, add 1/4 c parmesan cheese-Mix all together well. Top that sparingly with 3 tsp whole wheat breadcrumbs or panko bread crumbs, more parsley and pepper, 1/4 c shredded mozzarella cheese and last finish off with the zest of the half lemon you juiced!
***As a rule I always go easy on the cheese and also the breadcrumbs-this is how you can still eat what you want by just tweaking it to make it more figure friendly!! I also try to use almond milk or skim to cut some fat out there too! Eat smarter!!
Bake at 350 degrees for 45 min
ENJOY!! A
