1. Microwave the cooked penne according to pack instructions. Tip into a bowl. Mix through the remaining ingredients (the warm pasta will really soak up the flavours). If using chilled leftover pasta, simply mix everything together - it will still taste great. Can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days.

  Love this recipe! Makes a brilliant lunchbox meal, I make a batch up and then take it too work over the next few days. I use tinned tuna in brine and then add extra virgin olive oil to the warm cooked pasta, tastes lovely.
