Tuna Spaghetti


      A healthy and tasty spaghetti that went well with tuna flakes minus the meat and excessive oil.

    What a better way to enjoy spaghetti than to cook it with tuna flakes, the best and healthy alternative for meat. For those who don't want meat, you will surely love this!

    I never thought I will like this recipe as I always have this belief that spaghetti only goes well with meat, but I am wrong. I originally got this recipe from my brother and I assure you, it's better than any meat spaghetti you are always having. It's more economical and healthier, so try it and enjoy!
