Pesto Tuna Pasta Mug
Ingredients
- 75g quick-cook pasta
- 1 tin tuna
- 1 tbsp pesto
- Handful spinach
- Lemon juice
- Black pepper
Instructions
- 1
Cook the quick-cook pasta in a mug or small saucepan of well-salted boiling water per packet instructions — usually 4–6 min. Drain, reserving 2 tbsp cooking water.
- 2
Drain the tuna thoroughly.
- 3
Return the drained pasta to the mug. Add the tuna, pesto, and reserved cooking water. Stir to combine — the water helps the pesto coat everything.

Add the spinach and stir — it'll wilt in the residual heat within 1 min.

Squeeze over lemon juice, add a grind of black pepper, and serve.
