105 months and The Baked Tuna Pasta success!

Last Feb 8, Bu and I celebrated our 105 months of being together. Talk about history! We will be turning 9 this May 8 *happiness*.  I woke up and saw this:
*I died..*
All these years...he never fails to put a smile on my face. I feel so loved. <3

So what better way to return this huge act of sweetness? Do something out of my comfort zone for him - COOKING! I am not the best cook in the world (not even the BETTER cook or perhaps even the worst) so me cooking will be a tragedy in the making! 

I remember cooking for him once and it was an ultimate epic fail! Even our house helper thought it was not edible at all! Thats how bad I am in my cooking meter skill. This time I was hoping to up the meter from zero to hero!  Challenge accepted!

Got the recipe from M Pumpkin. Thanks love! This was kind of cheating since the sauce is already pre made...but It wasn't my dream to join the Masterchef cooking reality show so this should do it. As long as it's yummy and ze boyfriend will love it...then I'm fine. :)
The ingredients

1. Leggo's Tuna Bake Spinach and Garlic Sauce
2. Fresh Parsley
3. 4 Cans of Century Tuna Lite
4. Cowhead Pure Milk Low Fat High Calcium
5. Garlic
6. Barilla Integrale Fusilli
7. Del Monte Sweet Corn Cream Style
8. Perfect Italiano Pizza Plus Mozzarella, Cheddar & Parmesan

Steps:
1. Saute chopped garlic in the pan with olive oil until slightly golden brown.
2. Add the drained tuna.
3. Add chopped parsley.
4. Add Del Monte Sweet Corn.
5. Add milk.
6. Add salt and pepper to taste.
7. Set Aside.
8. Cook pasta as instructed.
9. In a bowl, mix the pasta and the sauce set aside previously. Make sure sauce is evenly distributed.
10. Transfer it in a baking foil. Top it with grated mozzarella, cheddar, parmesan cheese, chopped parsley and basil.
11. Place it in the oven to bake (see instructions at the back of the baked tuna sauce container)
12. Voila! Here's the finished product!
It was a success! Thanks Pumpkin and M for helping me! 


After a sumptuous meal, of course - we had to burn those extra calories! We ended our monthsary/pre valentines date at the gym <3 
Happy 105th and valentines bu! :)
