This Creamy Tuna Pasta Recipe is inexpensive and delicious recipe that the whole family is certain to love.

I came up with this Creamy Tuna Pasta Recipe on a whim. I have a toddler, who like most toddler is a super picky eater. And as I was busy making dinner which I do often for the family.

I was already thinking what to make for my son as well. Looking for another simple pasta dish? Try my Pasta with canned clams

My son often, won’t eat what we like to eat. So this was another day where I was throwing together stuff from my fridge and pantry in hopes to find a winner. And just my luck! I did, he gobbled his whole little bowl up.

So of course I had to try it. And needless to say, now this recipe is a family favorite. Finally something we all can enjoy together!

I’m thinking I really need to keep a running list of family favorite, toddler friendly recipes. Is there anyone out there interested? Well, either way it’s in the works. 

I used frozen peas for this recipe, however you can use broccoli, cauliflower whatever vegetable you think you and your family would like best. Or even add in some sauteed fresh mushrooms and make it extra special for the adults in the house!

HOW TO MAKE CANNED TUNA PASTA
