  I really love skillet meals like this Cheesy Tuna Pasta.  Meals/entrees that can be cooked all in one pan on top of the stove.  In the summer they are especially welcome as they don't heat up the kitchen like oven bakes do.   This Cheesy Tuna Pasta is just like your favourite Tuna Casserole, except it is cooked in a skillet.  Amazingly there is no need to cook the pasta first.  It cooks right in the pan with everything else, which also helps to cut down on the washing up!   So what do you need to cook a fantastic meal like this?  Nothing unsual.  Its simple, economical, quick and easy to make. small pasta shapes (I used smaller size macaroni) Albacore white tuna (I only ever buy albacore) whole milk (homogenised, don't use a lower fat milk, the richeness of the sauce comes from the use of whole milk) water butter dry mustard powder sweet paprika (the opposite of hot paprika) greated strong cheddar cheese (don't be tempted to use pre-grated ...

Actually in a casserole you might have had to think if it was really was chicken and not tuna!   Today I decided to make us a Tuna Pot Pie for our dinner.  And why not.  I always buy this beautiful Albacore Tuna  from Ocado.  It is Waitrose brand and you can get it in Spring water or olive oil.  I usually buy the one in spring water.  It is perfect for things like sandwiches, casseroles, etc.   In the warmer months we even enjoy it cold in salads or on salad plates.  I confess I am not a fan or ordinary tuna, and I never buy it unless it is for the dog.   I only buy Albacore white tuna, sustainably sourced.  An old Italian woman told me many years ago that anything else was garbage fish.  She stopped me right in the grocery store as I was putting tuna into ...

  Fish for Friday today with a delicious Asian Glazed Salmon!  You can't go wrong with a delicious boneless and skinless Salmon fillet.  I have never been fond of skin on my fish.  To me it is a bit of a turn off, so that is why I really love these boneless and skinless salmon fillets I get from Seafresh .    Their fish is so amazing.  I have never had any fish from them that I didn't like.  Its frozen fresh at the source and so it is some of  the freshest fish that you can find.  Their salmon fillets are absolutely gorgeous. Boneless and skinless and individually frozen so that you can take out as many or as few as you want to cook at any given time.    At the moment when those of us who are self isolating are unable to get the shops and home delivery slots are really difficult to get, shopping at online shops like Seafresh is the way to go!  They make it so easy to shop.  Just log on to their easy to use shop, ...
