Ingredients
Measured for 4 servings.
- 520 gTuna in water, drained

Make it
Method
Drain the tuna and sweetcorn thoroughly, dice the cucumber and stir the yogurt with the measured lemon juice before the cooked pasta is cooled.
Cook the dry whole-wheat pasta in steadily boiling water until al dente. Drain, rinse briefly with cool water and spread out so it stops cooking.
Drain the tuna and corn thoroughly; dice the cucumber. Excess liquid is the main reason pasta salad becomes watery after storage.
Stir yogurt and lemon juice into a smooth dressing, then fold it through the cooled pasta before adding tuna, corn and cucumber.
Chill for 15 minutes if time allows, then divide into 4 equal portions. Stir once before serving because the pasta absorbs dressing as it rests.
