Paccheri pasta is a gift for us from the Campania and Calabria regions in Italy. They have a tubular shape, which means they can be served with or without stuffing. We’ve tried them more often on the simpler side, with a rich tomato sauce, flavored with some capers, chili, and parsley. Since we were aiming for a light dinner, we got exactly what we needed!

If you like to eat fish, but you don’t always have time to cook it, choose the canned version. For example, you can use tuna in brine to make some delicious pasta – it’s ready in less than 15 minutes. If you watch your diet, make sure that tuna is canned in water not brine or oil.
