Century Corned Tuna's Bloggers Cook-off

this is what i've really missed: cooking with a bunch of friends. and this has taken to a higher level as we have been invited by Century Corned Tuna to a bloggers cook-off challenge. we were divided into two groups and i joined jane, arpee, ajay, aj, and erlyn.

our task is to make courses as many as we want provided with the following ingredients:

the task should be done under a limited time and will be judged thru the following criteria: Plating (20%), Originality (20%), Taste (25%) and the Innovative Use of Century Corned Tuna (35%). we made a couple of recipes which captured the tastebuds of the judges and other guests. we made quesadillas and a pasta dish.

i would like to share to you our pasta dish recipe as told by aj named Century Corned Tuna Pasta with Asparagus, Spinach and Miso topped with Almonds:
