This is an excellent change from the traditional creamy tuna pasta salad. Makes a great main course for a light dinner or lunch, and is also great on a bbq buffet or to take to a potluck. Note that you can prepare the sauce while the pasta is cooking, making this quick too. While it keeps well for a day or two, you can also cut it in half to feed two.

Steps:
- Put on a large pot of salted water to boil; cook spaghetti until al dente stage; drain well and set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together oil, garlic, hot pepper flakes and salt and pepper until well combined.
- Stir in tomatoes, roasted peppers (you can substitute raw red bell peppers if you wish, but the taste will be a little different; still good, just different), tuna and olives (I use greek kalamata olives).
- Next, stir in parsley and basil (do not substitute dried) and green onions.
- Add the well-drained spaghetti to bowl and thoroughly combine with sauce.
- Taste; add more salt and pepper if you wish.
- This is best served either warm or at room temperature; if you wish to make it ahead of time, cover well and refrigerate, but bring it back to room temp before you serve it.
