Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

300g pasta such as penne or fusilli
1 tbsp olive oil
150g button mushrooms, sliced
3 rashers smoked back bacon, chopped into small pieces
2x 198g tins of tuna in brine, drained and flaked
100g sweetcorn
1x 400g tin of mushroom soup
150g grated hard cheese such as cheddar
salt & pepper to season

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200C/gas mark 6
  • Cook the pasta according to packet instructions and drain well.
  • Heat the oil in a pan and fry the mushrooms and chopped bacon for 2 - 3 minutes then transfer to a large bowl along with the drained pasta. Add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl, reserving about a 1/3 of the cheese. Mix well.
