    I will definitely try this out and let you know how good I follow directions. It looks yummy!

    Note: I have such little time after practice to do anything so I normally prepare some pasta on Sunday but I never thought of tuna. My mom use to always make use tuna so how could I have forgotten??? Thanks Trackmom!
