WARM TUNA PASTA SALAD

This warm tuna salad is all about preparing a cost effective filling meal .... most of the ingredients come in cans. If you don't like tuna replace it with tinned salmon . Cook 500gm of spiral pasta in a pot of salted boiling water , uncovered , until just tender,then drain and rinse under cold water .( spray lightly with cooking oil ). Set aside . Now open 2 X cans of tuna in oil and drain in a coliander ( reserve 2 tbs of the oil ). Place the pasta and the tuna together in a large bowl along with , 1 can ( 440 gm ) of corn kernals ( drained ) , 1 red capsicum finely sliced , 2 stalks of celery finely chopped . In a seperate bowl mix together 1/4 cup of mayonnaise (75gm ) , 1 tbs of Greek yoghurt, 3 tbs of minced garlic , 1 dsp of grated lemon rind and lemon juice and 2 tbs of wholegrain mustard . Add this mixture to the pasta mix and toss gently to combine ...the warmth comes from the warm pasta . Enjoy...
