Healthy Tuna & Mushroom Pasta: Yellowfin Tuna Steak with Healthy Mushroom Gravy Over Penne Pasta

Eating healthy can sometimes get a little repetitive. It seems like we’re always eating protein and veggies in some form. And we always seem to fall into a repetitive pattern… As Jason Statham once said, “Not another chicken and broccoli…”

If this sounds like you, it’s time to switch it up! This healthy tuna and mushroom pasta is a great option! We pan seer yellowfin tuna steaks in butter, saute baby bella mushrooms, and make a light and delicious sauce to top the tuna steaks. All of this is served over a penne pasta of your choice. But make sure to keep it Nutrifitx Approved!

If you’re enjoying this healthy tuna and mushroom pasta for dinner, we recommend using a lentil or chickpea pasta. But if you’re having this recipe for lunch or earlier, we recommend brown rice or quinoa pasta. These options work with your body’s natural blood sugar cycles to help keep it regulated and balanced.
