Vegan pasta with no-cook tomato 'sauce'

Here's my contribution to the May vegetarian theme: 3 medium sized ripened tomatoes with lots of flavour 1 garlic clove - grated with a wasabi grater, crushed or finely chopped 1 tablespoon of rinsed capers, chopped 8 olives, sliced (I use green, manzanilla olives) 1 finely sliced shallot (alternatively, use scallion/spring onion or a small piece of onion) 3 to 4 tablespoons of good olive oil salt enough dried pasta (your choice) for two portions

I forgot to take out the frozen rice I made on sunday (again) so I had to cook pasta again!... So it was almost the same bento as yesterday but it was tastier as I didn't forget to add the dressings this time ;)

Tonnato sauce - a rich tuna sauce for pasta

This is a variation on a famous Italian sauce for a dish called vitello tonnato, but it omits the vitello (veal) and just uses the sauce to toss with pasta. It is a very frugal dish since you can make dinner for two with 1 can of tuna, pasta, and a bit of olive oil and seasonings. (You may want to add a green salad or something for a complete meal.)
