Hmm, so this is interesting. I don't believe I have ever had a tuna pasta salad. In fact, the only salad that I have ever had tuna in is well..tuna salad. You know the kind that you make and place in some bread? Yea, that's it. I'm sheltered I suppose. This sounds interesting though.

1 oz cooked rotini pasta
1 cup canned beans, red kidney or garbanzo
3 artichoke hearts (from a can), quartered
1 oz reduced fat feta cheese
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 oz chopped kalamata black olives
lemon juice to taste
garlic pepper to tase
DIRECTIONS
Combine ingredients in a bowl and stir until all items are well distributed. Simple!

27Garlic Pasta
Garlic and pasta go together like lamb and tuna fish! Maybe spaghetti and meatballs? (Big Daddy reference..ok I'll stop!). Seriously though I can never have pasta without garlic. A pasta that called Garlic pasta puts me in a dream state! I love garlic and pasta, how can you go wrong? This doesn't seem too hard to make either! I like it like that.
INGREDIENTS
1 (16 ounce) package dry penne pasta
1 medium head garlic, peeled and chopped
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
DIRECTIONS
1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente; drain.
2. In a skillet, saute garlic in oil on low heat, just hot enough to make the garlic sizzle; about 10 to 15 minutes. Season with basil, oregano, parsley, and crushed red pepper, and remove from heat.
3. In a large bowl, toss cooked pasta with garlic and herb mixture, and let sit for 3 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with Parmesan, and serve.
