Fusilli with tuna, radishes, and pine nuts is a tasty and original main dish.
A great idea on how to make use of this vegetable, resulting in a delightful and innovative dish to surprise your family at lunch.
The ideal recipe for days when you have limited time to put something tasty on the table, as the sauce is prepared while the pasta is cooking.
For the sauce, I added a can of tuna in oil, a tablespoon of cream cheese for creaminess, and pine nuts for a crunchy touch in every bite.
