Heres to another recipe for the weekend; we have here pappardelle pasta with tuna. Tuna is a very healthy addition to this recipe, just check this website out (http://www.tunafacts.com/healthbenefits/index.html ) and see for yourself. Tuna can lower blood pressure and cholesterol and a great source of lean protein. Those that do not prefer or like tuna could replace the tuna with another kind of fish like salmon or some other kind of meat to compliment the dish. Pappardelle pasta is apparently commonly used by expert chefs as a top choice pasta to cook with. Check out the recipe below:
