WE LIGHTENED UP THE CLASSIC TUNA NOODLE CASSEROLE
A comfort-filled classic, the traditional dish features a cast of hefty characters-cream, cheese, and noodles-and delivers nearly 700 calories and a day's worth of sat fat with just one helping. In an attempt to introduce fresher ingredients while staying true to the classic, we start by bolstering the filling with meaty mushrooms, lots of aromatics, and herbs. Tomato paste adds a tangy counterpoint to the creamy, noodle-coating sauce, while Dijon mustard and lemon zest add zing. Canned tuna is a pantry staple that takes center stage in our remake (with just as many beneficial omega-3s as fresh). In lieu of a breadcrumb or potato chip topper, we use fresh dill and sharp cheddar to round out this dinner with bright flavor and cheesy goodness for less sodium.

- Healthy Tuna Veggie Melts. Opt for this light, calorie-saving tuna melt by making your sandwich open-faced and adding extra vegetables: celery, sweet peppers, and chickpeas.
- Chickpea Tuna Salad. This is not your average sad desk salad. It is bursting with a rainbow of crispy, crunchy vegetables (red onion, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, and arugula) which are added to the holy trifecta of quick pantry salads: tuna, chickpeas, and feta.
- Tuna Green Chile Zucchini Casserole. If you are paleo or doing Whole30, this zoodle-y, spicy take on a tuna noodle casserole may just become your go-to dinner recipe.
- Pasta Puttanesca. A weeknight dream recipe, this tuna pasta uses lots of zesty, flavorful ingredients to create a quick sauce for any pasta shape you have kicking around in your pantry.
