Warm Pasta and Tuna Medley
A quick, easy and very tasty supper dish
Chop 6 ripe tomatoes and place in a large salad bowl. Add a drained 6-ounce can of tuna, about 12 chopped black olives, 8 ounces of cubed mozzarella cheese, 1 1/2 ounces capers (caperberries) and a handful of torn basil leaves. Season with salt and pepper then add a good pour of extra-virgin olive oil, enough to coat all the ingredients well.
Leave to sit while you cook one pound of pasta shapes, like penne or fusilli, in a large pan of boiling salted water until done.
Drain the cooked pasta, then add to the bowl and toss with the cold ingredients. Add more olive oil and seasoning to taste if you wish.
The medley will be warm, not hot, and that's how it should be. Enjoy!
