Student-friendly Tuna Pasta Bake recipe

Leana Goulden

Bish, Bash, Bosh! This is a super easy and quick recipe for a delicious hearty dinner – a fabulous recipe for when it’s raining outside!! Now, of course, there will be ingredients in here that not everyone will enjoy, a few possible switch-ups could be:

  1. Chicken instead of tuna
  2. Courgettes as a veggie replacement
  3. Make it extra meaty. Try option one and then switch out the sweetcorn for bacon – delicious!!

What are you waiting for – give it a go!!

Ingredients:

  • 600g Pasta – Any type works
  • 340g tin of sweetcorn
  • 2 x 160g tins of tuna in spring water, drained
  • 600ml Milk
  • 50g Plain Flour
  • 50g Butter
  • 250g Cheddar
  • Handful of Parsley
  • A squeeze of Lemon Juice

Method:

  1. Preheat your oven to 180C/ Fan Oven 160C. Boil your pasta in a pan for a minute under the recommended time, it will continue to cook in the oven!
  2. Now to make a white sauce! Melt your butter in a pan and add the plain flour, stirring throughout.
  3. Cook this for a minute before gradually adding the milk to the mixture, once again stirring continuously. The outcome should be a thick white sauce.
  4. Take the sauce off of the heat and add the cheddar. Save a handful of cheese for later! Make sure that it is completely mixed.
  5. Drain your pasta and add to the white sauce. Mix in your tuna, sweetcorn and parsley. Add a squeeze of lemon and season to your preferred taste.
  6. Pop the mixture into a baking dish and sprinkle it with cheese, remember the bit from earlier!
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, and voila!!! This dish will serve six portions or serve fewer people and have lunch for tomorrow… I’ll let you make that decision!!
