20 mins prepServes 4
A refreshing cold pasta with tuna and bell peppers, perfect for summer picnics or a trip to the beach. This Mediterranean-inspired dish celebrates the Mediterranean Diet's 10th anniversary and is easy to prepare.
1: Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil and cook the pasta.
2: While the pasta cooks, prepare the dressing by washing and drying the bell peppers, cutting them into strips, and removing the white inner membranes and seeds.
3: In a pan, heat 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and then add the peppers, sautéing them for about 10 minutes.
4: Season with salt and then remove from heat to let them cool completely.
5: In a large bowl, combine the cooled peppers with the drained and flaked tuna.
6: Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and rinse it under running water to stop the cooking process and cool it down.
7: Add the pasta to the bowl with the other ingredients.
8: Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, adjust the salt, and finish with chopped fresh parsley.
