I made this for lunch today (well I only made half the recipe except for the pesto part) and it is quite nice and makes quite a lot!

Great for summer and for a day like today in Perth!

I'm not sure if it's me but the pasta bit did not work out at all. In fact the pasta was all really gluggy after I cooked it (I had done a quick rinse after the pesto part so I don't think it was that). I had to cook another batch of pasta using the EDC recipe. Anyone else had this?

Next time, I would probably cook the pasta first and prepare the salad ingredients during this and then make the pesto last, that way no rinsing is required.

OH and I would also recommend to use flavoured tuna.

Here is a photo:
