Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ red onion, cut into bite-size pieces
4 cups ice water, or as needed
1 (8 ounce) package tri-color rotini pasta
1 (5 ounce) can light tuna in water, drained and flaked
2 stalks celery, cut into bite-size pieces
½ cup roasted red peppers, drained and chopped
¼ cup smoked sun-dried tomatoes

1 sprig parsley, stemmed and leaves minced
4 leaves fresh basil, rolled and very thinly sliced
2 teaspoons capers
1 cup Greek vinaigrette salad dressing

Steps:

  • Soak red onion in a bowl of ice water in refrigerator to remove strong taste, at least 30 minutes. Drain and rinse.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning. The tuna was also a bit dry. I would not make this again.
