I thought this was okay. It could use some punching up. Perhaps some briney, salty black olives. I was surprised at how well the tuna worked.

Great use of things I had on hand. I was surprised by how mild the tuna was. I added salt, pepper, crushed red pepper as suggested by other reviewers.

This was very satisfying, but maybe needed a little more flavor - still, for a pantry meal, it was not only different but it was good. I used penne and subbed red wine because that's all I had. I added a good pinch of red pepper flakes as it tasted kind of bland, and also the sauce was very thin. Next time I think I'll add a tbsp or so of tomato paste to thicken it up and give the sauce more body, and maybe some capers or olives (which I think would go great with the tuna) and basil. This would also be a great dish to add some beans to if you were looking for something very filling! Pretty good as is, but lots of potential in this one!

I didn't think it had enough sauce, next time I will cut the amount of pasta by half. I also added dried basil, I thought the sauce was too bland with just oregano and thyme. I used whole grain spaghetti to make this healthier.

Quick and easy, but too sweet.

I loved this sauce. I sauted garlic, onions, diced tomatoes, then added wine, 1 can tomato sauce, 2 pouches of white tuna and extra seasonings including salt and pepper. No cheese at all. This is a great recipe for Advent or Lent when you are fasting.

I followed the recipe quite closely although I sauted the onion by itself first. A tasty recipe but it might benefit from a touch of chili. If anyone tries chili please report back!

Added canellini and only used one can of tuna. Used diced tomatoes. Pretty darn good for a meal when you are broke!

The hub and I were a little leery of trying this recipe but since we had the ingredients on hand, we did. It was very good and though we thought the tuna might overpower the flavor, it was perfect. Served it with some crusty garlic bread and it was delicious! Will make again, and may try with crab as suggested on another review.
