Creamy Tuna Pasta Salad with Broccoli
Chilled whole grain pasta tossed with protein-rich tuna and crisp broccoli florets in a zesty, creamy Greek yogurt dressing.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz whole wheat rotini pasta
8 oz canned tuna in water
0.75 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp olive oil mayonnaise
1.5 cups broccoli florets
1 medium red bell pepper
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
0.5 tsp dried dill
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat rotini according to package directions until al dente.
During the last 3 minutes of pasta cooking, add the broccoli florets to the pot to lightly blanch them until bright green and tender-crisp.
Drain the pasta and broccoli together in a colander and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process and chill quickly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, olive oil mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, dried dill, sea salt, and black pepper.
Add the drained tuna, diced red bell pepper, and the chilled pasta and broccoli to the bowl with the dressing.
Gently fold all ingredients together until evenly coated, then garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
