    8 oz whole-wheat bowtie pasta
    2 cups cut green beans (or 1 lb frozen)
    1 cup sliced carrots
    1/2 cup red wine vinaigrette dressing
    1 can (12 ounces) canned tuna, packed in water
    1-1/2 medium tomatoes, cut into thin wedges

    Fill a 5-quart saucepan two-thirds full with water; bring to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package directions. Reduce heat to low; simmer, uncovered, for 8 minutes.
