Used different ingredients. I tried this out of curiosity - did not have capers and added 2 T. minced garlic in oil. I would make this again. There are just some days when you need it this quick and easy. - 21 Jul 2008
Used different ingredients. For more flavour, use oil-packed tuna and add a little lemon zest along with the juice. I also throw in lots of kalamata olives. - 21 Jul 2008
Used different ingredients. This was a great time saver! I omitted the parsley (my husband doesn´t like it), used garlic olive oil and the result was the best tuna sauce EVER. I really enjoyed it and it smelled sooooo good while simmering. GREAT recipe, thanks for sharing! Moshi - 21 Jul 2008
