I love dishes that wake up those ingredients hibernating at the back of your storecupboard. This recipe breathes new life into canned tuna, canned tomatoes and dry pasta, making it is a great option when the fridge is bare. The apple is the real game changer here and it adds an interesting twist and a lovely bite to this superb tray bake.
