INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Canned Tuna in Water
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta, cooked
1/4 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 medium Lemon (juice and zest)
1 clove Garlic
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with the juice and zest of half a lemon, a minced garlic clove, and chopped parsley. Mix well to create a creamy sauce.
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the drained tuna and gently warm for 1-2 minutes, breaking it apart slightly.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet along with fresh spinach. Toss until the spinach starts to wilt.
Remove from heat and stir in the creamy lemon-yogurt sauce. Mix until the ingredients are evenly coated.
Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste. Garnish with extra parsley or a little more lemon zest if desired, then serve immediately.
