As per usual, this looks delicious. I'm always looking for a way to use tuna but have never thought of using it as a bolognese-type sauce. Genius.
I know my japanese friend eats tuna this way,, looks wonderful,,
Mmm looks so tasty! Great use of fish!
I love how you use the jalapeno, Catherine! You'd think you were from Texas! ;) Thank you for stopping by today. It IS hard to keep up with the visits, the blogging and the real world! hugs and blessings ~ tanna
Tuna and spaghetti?! Whoda thunk? I've definitely got to try this one!
Wow I love tuna like this, my mom made it like this many times! wonderful recipe!
really nice recipe. it is a very tasty version of a popular (in Italy) easy pasta with tunafish. I love it with rigatoni. thanks for sharing (barbara e. from facebook)
Looks great - one can never have too many pasta recipes!
Never put tuna and a bolognese together...mouth watering, lovely photos. Bella :-)
My sister makes a similar recipe...I came looking for fish sauce and it took me awhile to figure it out:))) love the addition of jalapeno!
You are making all my favorites Catherine! I love tuna fish sauce! Thanks for all the sweet comments you left me. Hope you have a great weekend! xoxo
Catherine this looks delish! Did you ever make it with sardines? My old boss used to make it that way and it was fabulous!
What a delightful sauce...your pasta dishes are the best!
Catherine, my family is from the mountains of Italy, so I did not grow up with one Italian fish recipe, can you even believe that? My relatives were so poor, they were never able to get to the sea either. I'd love to try this and the fish that Claudia posted as well, so that I can get my fish fix and my Italian fix at the same time! Blessings to you. Roz xoxoxo
