Tuscan-Style Pasta with Cannellini
a dangerous combination of ingredients -- the cannellini beans, pasta, and greens are very bland if not seasoned properly. I recommend adding crushed red pepper flakes.

Cilantro Serrano Cream Sauce
ridiculous. I used half & half instead of cream, and I halved the recipe but probably added much more garlic & peppers than called for because I gotta be me. I drizzled this over Chipotle Shrimp Tacos (from this website) and oh my was this good. oh yes. yes it was.

Zingy Pesto Tuna Wrap
good stuff! I used storebought pesto because I was too eager to try this recipe (read: too lazy) to make my own. the pesto-in-a-jar had citric acid, so it didn't need an entire tsp of lemon juice. I can't say for sure, but I imagine that if you used homemade pesto this wouldn't be a problem. I used a muenster/provolone combination & sliced black olives because that's what I had in my cupboard. I also didn't add anywhere near 2 tbsps of mayonnaise; just enough to bind it all together will do. my final suggestion would be to place the tortilla flat in a skillet to warm & lay the cheese on top to melt it. microwaves do terrible things to bread products, imo. I enjoy finding new, delicious, inexpensive ways to prepare tuna, so thank you for the recipe!
