Spring is finally here! And that means we'll be sharing plenty of fresh, light dishes with you over the coming weeks. This tuna pasta salad is a wonderful lunch for this time of year — and in summer it works just as well as an evening meal or a side at the BBQ.

The pasta salad was made in the new colander and serving bowl from the Clever Cooking collection by Villeroy & Boch. The bowl features a silicone rim that folds easily up or down, so you can drain your pasta first and then transform the same bowl into a serving dish. Super simple! It saves both space and time. The bowl is made from premium porcelain, comes in fresh white & blue or white & green colourways, and is dishwasher safe. We're big fans =D

Ingredients

  • 300 g fusilli
  • 2 cans of tuna (in water)
  • 2 red onions

Fresh pasta salad with tuna

    1. Cook the fusilli according to the package instructions, drain in the colander and serving bowl, and leave to drip dry.

    2. Add the two cans of tuna and drain those as well.

    3. Once the pasta and tuna have drained, transfer them to a large bowl.

    4. Chop the gherkins, red onions, sun-dried tomatoes, eggs and black olives into pieces and add them to the bowl.

    5. Finally, stir in the mayonnaise, Greek yoghurt and ketchup, and season to taste with salt and pepper.

    Enjoy your meal!

This pasta salad tastes just as good the next day. Store it covered in the fridge and only add the rocket just before serving, so it stays fresh and crisp.

Serve the pasta salad as a main course or as a side dish at a barbecue. You can easily customise it by adding capers or bell pepper to taste.
