Pumpkin is the star of this season, even though it’s still quite warm. Today I prepared a very tasty and especially quick pasta. Pasta with pumpkin and tuna. A perfect combination in my opinion because it was really a big hit. This time I opted for spicy tuna because I love spicy food, if you don’t have it you can add chili or use traditional tuna. If you, like me, are tuna lovers, I’ll leave some more ideas below.
