Ingredients
-
6 ounces dried whole grain farfalle (bow-tie) pasta
-
1 (5 ounce) can solid white tuna (packed in oil)
-
Olive oil (optional)
-
1 cup fennel, thinly sliced (1 medium bulb)
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
2 (14.5 ounce) cans no-salt-added diced tomatoes, undrained
-
2 tablespoons snipped fresh Italian (flat leaf) parsley
-
1 teaspoon lemon peel, finely shredded
Directions
-
Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt; drain. Return pasta to pan; cover and keep warm. Meanwhile, drain tuna, reserving oil. If necessary, add enough olive oil to measure 3 tablespoons total. Flake tuna; set aside.
-
In a medium saucepan heat the 3 tablespoons of reserved oil over medium heat. Add fennel; cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add garlic, crushed red pepper and salt; cook and stir about 1 minute or just until garlic is golden.
-
Stir in tomatoes. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 to 6 minutes or until mixture starts to thicken. Stir in tuna; simmer, uncovered, about 1 minute more or until tuna is heated through.
-
Pour tuna mixture over pasta; stir gently to combine. Sprinkle each serving with parsley and lemon peel.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
