Title: Portuguese Tuna
Categories: None
Yield: 1 Servings

1 tb Olive oil
1/2 Onion (sliced)
2 cn Tuna (drained) (I used water
-pack solid)
1 cn Tomato sauce
1 Dz rosemary (dried)
1/4 ts Cumin
1 ds Red pepper
1/2 Bell pepper (chopped) or 1
-Tbsp. dried
1/2 ts Salt
1 Tomato sauce can water

Saute the onion in the olive oil until tender. Add tuna and remaining
ingredients and simmer 10 minutes. Jackie says this is a foolproof recipe
and always turns out. She says she uses two dashes of red pepper now. You
can jazz it up with crushed red pepper but I recommend that you have a cast
iron stomach if you do. (I don't!)

I left out an ingredient -- one tomato sauce can full of water! Also, I
used green bell pepper but I suspect that it would be even better with red
bell pepper. That's what I'm going to use next time. I tried it on rice,
even though Jackie says she and her husband just eat it plain with French
bread to sop up the juice.
