INGREDIENTS
4 oz Tuna (canned in water)
2/3 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 tbsp Fresh Basil Pesto
1 cup Roasted Mixed Vegetables (Zucchini & Red Bell Pepper)
1 large Egg White
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss chopped zucchini and red bell pepper with a light spray of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the vegetables roast, bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small skillet, lightly scramble or poach the egg white until just set. This will be folded into the pasta later to boost protein without overwhelming the flavors.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta with the roasted vegetables, tuna, and fresh basil pesto. Gently fold in the cooked egg white.
Toss everything together until well mixed. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed before serving.
