One pot recipes are some of our favorite meals. We love how easy it is, at the end of a busy day, to throw a bunch of ingredients together and come up with something delicious. Our one skillet tuna and pasta casserole is no exception. The sauce is creamy without feeling heavy, while the peas and carrots give this dish both color and a light sweetness. We like making this with spirali pasta, but we also have used shells, rotini, or whatever else we have on hand in the pantry. This is a great choice when we don’t have a lot of time, and clean up is a breeze!
