Ingredients

2 large eggs

1 pound penne rigate pasta

3/4 cup of mayonnaise

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 tablespoon finely grated fresh lemon zest

2 green onions, finely chopped

1/2 cup thinly sliced fresh basil

1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

Salt and pepper to taste

1 (6 ounce) can of tuna

Directions

  1. Place eggs in a small sauce pan with just enough water to cover and bring to a rapid boil. Remove from heat and cover tightly with a lid. Let sit for 10 minutes. Drain water and fill the pot with cold running water. Cool the eggs just enough to handle. Peel and quarter.
  2. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Then rinse under cold running water and drain.
  3. In the meantime, whisk together mayo and lemon juice in a large bowl. Add lemon zest, green onion, basil, thyme, salt and pepper. Lightly stir in tuna and toss with pasta.  Garnish with eggs.
