Ingredients

  • 60 g wholegrain pasta
  • 70 g cottage cheese
  • 60 g light tuna (The source calls this “tonno leggero.”)
  • 20 g sun-dried tomatoes
  • kale or baby spinach (Use either kale or baby spinach; amount not specified.)
  • 4 olives
  • cherry tomatoes (Amount not specified.)
  • spring onion (Amount not specified.)
  • fresh basil (Amount not specified.)
  • 0.25 tsp cayenne pepper
  • lemon juice (Amount not specified.)
  • ground black pepper (Amount not specified.)
  • pasta water (Reserve some of the water used to cook the pasta; amount not specified.)
  • lemon zest (Amount not specified.)

Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the wholegrain pasta according to the package directions. Before draining, reserve some of the pasta water.

  2. 2

    Prepare the sauce without cooking it by combining the cottage cheese, light tuna, sun-dried tomatoes, kale or baby spinach, olives, cherry tomatoes, spring onion, fresh basil, cayenne pepper, lemon juice, ground black pepper, and lemon zest.

  3. 3

    Drain the cooked pasta and add it to the no-cook sauce. Loosen and combine the mixture with some of the reserved pasta water until the sauce coats the pasta.

  4. 4

    Add the reserved tuna, olives, and a little lemon juice as indicated in the source, then toss to balance the flavors with the tomatoes.

  5. 5

    Serve immediately as a fresh, refreshing pasta lunch.

Notes

The source states that the sauce requires no cooking and describes the dish as a 10-minute lunch. Several ingredients are listed without quantities, so add them according to taste. The transcript is partially unclear, particularly regarding whether some tuna and olives are reserved for finishing.
