Boil pasta, drain, add chopped tomatoes & chopped hotdogs, warm thro, season (oregano, paprika, basil if u have any). Serve & sprinkle with grated cheese. Did me when I was a stude

Reet, bung a couple of tins of the tomatoes in a saucepan and add a spoon of sugar. Bring to the boil and then turn down to a gentle simmer. If you have it, add a bit of Worcestershire sauce or even brown sauce to the tomatoes, or some tobasco or a good grind of pepper.

Let that lot cook until it has thickened a bit, then add some stock if you've got any, then cook it down again.

Now you've got a basic tomato sauce, which, if you spice it more will be fine with the pasta and hotdogs, or keep it fairly mild and stir the tuna into it and have that with the pasta instead.

wow thats great, lol thanx, we never eat the hotdogs, so should be good to use them up finally.

lol we have worcester sauce, yum

Take two tins of cabbage, boil for 12 hours (adding water where necessary) and you'll have 'The Authentic Hall of Residence Smell' (tm).

cook and drain the pasta, then mix in the tuna and the sweetcorn, 'borrow' some mayo from someone else's fridge and mix that in. sorted!
