Creamy Tuna Pasta

Packed with goodies and coated in a delicious sauce, this Creamy Tuna Pasta is a quick and easy winning dinner! I’m always trying to come up with recipes that are tasty for the kids but that my husband and I will enjoy too. And that’s a challenge! But this simple pasta recipe is one of them. I’ve added some shortcuts to make life easier without taking away from the taste, like using canned tuna, canned peas and jarred sauce. If fettuccine might be a bit tricky for your little ones to deal with, you can replace it with some short pasta instead, like fussilli or farfalle. And if you have any other tinned vegetables, you can add those in too!

To make the Creamy Tuna Pasta, you will need the following ingredients:
