BLOND PUTTANESCA (LINGUINE WITH TUNA, ARUGULA AND CAPERS)
Garlic, anchovies, capers and tuna come together in this briny, tomato-less take on the classic pasta puttanesca. The sauce is prepared while the pasta cooks, so you can get dinner on the table in no time. If you want to go the extra mile, roughly chopped green pitted olives would be a nice addition, as would topping the dish with toasted panko bread crumbs tossed with lemon zest. Go ahead, drink that glass of falanghina while you're cooking.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until it is just under al dente, about 7 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 1/2 cups of the pasta cooking water.
- While pasta cooks, make the sauce: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add garlic and red-pepper flakes and cook until garlic is pale golden, about 1 minute. Add anchovies and capers and cook until anchovies have melted and capers begin to brown slightly, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Turn heat to medium. Ladle a 1/2 cup of reserved pasta water into the skillet and bring mixture to a simmer. Cook until mixture is reduced by about half, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add in arugula and ladle in an additional 1/2 cup of pasta water, tossing together until wilted. Increase heat to medium-high and scoop pasta directly in to the skillet tossing with sauce until well coated. Add tuna to pasta and toss again until it is just warmed just through, about 1 minute. Ladle in an additional 1/4 cup pasta water or more, to loosen up sauce and toss again. Sprinkle parsley over pasta and toss again. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve in bowls, with flaky salt, a squeeze of lemon, additional parsley and red-pepper flakes, if desired.

PASTA WITH TUNA, SPINACH, AND HOT PEPPER
The original recipe came from the San Francisco Chronicle. The original recipe calls for arugula (which I love) but it's hard to find sometimes, so I switched to fresh spinach. If you can find an Italian tonno in olive oil (Bumble Bee has one in the gold can which I can easily find), then it's worth the extra money to use. However, I have used tuna in water when it was all I had in the pantry. Just drain the water and add a little olive oil to the can, since this tuna is a bit drier than the Italian version. Let it marinate for about an hour, then drain it and use. Canned tuna has never tasted so good!!! I love this recipe for a quick dinner that I can throw together out of the pantry in less than 30 minutes, and DH was surprised how good it was when he first tasted it. This is a good base recipe to add extra goodies (sun dried tomatoes, mushrooms, artichokes, black olives, capers, etc.). I look forward to reading your comments with your add ins :)

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and boil until al dente.
- While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet on medium-low heat. Add the garlic and hot pepper flakes and cook until garlic is fragrant and sizzling. NOTE: start with the 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, then work up from there with your taste.
- Add tuna and shred it into fine flakes with a spoon in your sauce. Season with salt and lemon juice, if desired. Lower the heat and keep warm while waiting for the pasta to cook.
- Just before the pasta is ready, set aside 1 cup of the pasta water. Drain pasta and return it to the warm pot set over moderate heat.
- Depending on the size of your pot and skillet: add the spinach and the tuna mixture to the pasta in the pasta pot, or add the drained pasta to the skillet with the tuna mixture and add the spinach.
- Toss all of this together with tongs, moistening with some of the reserved pasta water. The spinach will wilt in the heat of the pasta. Divide among warm bowls and serve immediately.
- Top with some parmesan cheese (if desired) and enjoy!

- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook the pasta according to the package directions.
- While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil and garlic in a skillet that is large enough to hold the cooked pasta. Cook the garlic over medium heat for 1-2 minutes or until it becomes very fragrant. Add the crushed red pepper and cook for 1-2 minutes more (do not let the red pepper burn, turn the heat down if it begins to brown).
- Very carefully, add 1-2 ladles of the pasta cooking water to the skillet. Also add about 1/4 bunch of chopped parsley. Let this simmer over medium heat until the pasta is done cooking.
- When the pasta is al dente, drain it briefly in a colander and then add it to the skillet. Stir everything together. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. If there is still liquid in the skillet, continue to let it simmer until it has evaporated (this shouldn’t take long).
