Anyone looking for a good recipe for tomorrow (no meat Friday) this one is it.I recommend that you serve it with the lemon wedges. We began eating it without and then sqeezed some on to try it out. It was so light and fresh tasting. Very filling and even better as a left over!You can find it in the 29 Minutes to Dinner pg. 59 and it really does take about 25 minutes!

Where is it located?
 
Rigatoni with Tuna and Sun-dried Tomatoes is in the first 29 Minutes to Dinner Cookbook on page 59; I have been meaning to try it myself.

And might I add that if you haven't tried the Shrimp Panzanella Salad on page 47 in the same cookbook it will TOTALLY rock your world if you like shrimp. Since I still don't have the grill pan, we made the bread/toast in the oven at 450 degrees which toasted it nicely but we didn't get the grill marks. It was marvelous.

These 29 Minutes cookbooks are the best.​
 
I agree!! Love this recipe!! Now I'll have to try the Shrimp Panzanella....mmmm
