Ingredients

• 2 6oz. pouches StarKist Tuna Creations®, Sweet and Spicy, flaked
• 4 oz. (about 1 1/4 cups) uncooked high fiber penne pasta
• One 12 oz. bag (about 4 cups) broccoli cole slaw
• 2 cups chopped red and yellow bell peppers
• 1/2 cup chopped red onion 1 cup chopped jicama
• 1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar
• 2 tsp. extra virgin olive oil
• 1/8 tsp. red pepper flakes

Preparation

Step 1

Directions

Prepare pasta in a medium pot per package instructions, about 10 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold water, and transfer to a large bowl.

In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine broccoli slaw with 1/4 cup water. Cover and microwave for 4 - 5 minutes, until softened. (Alternatively, steam your slaw by microwaving it right in the bag, if the package says it can be done.) Drain excess liquid, rinse with cold water, and transfer to the large bowl of pasta.

Add bell peppers, onion, jicama, and flaked tuna.

In a medium bowl, whisk vinegar, oil, and red pepper flakes.

Add to the large bowl, and mix well.
