Lemon Tuna Pasta

This is a variation on the one in the Lochhead Ladies cookbook. A regular for us.

1 pound green beans
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tsp finely chopped shallots
salt and pepper

zest and juice from 1 lemon
1 to 1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan (thanks Cindy!)
1 Tbsp capers, rinsed
2 cans tuna, packed in oil (thank you Trader Joe's)
1 lb pasta

Toss green beans in the oil, shallots and some salt and pepper. Roast at 375 for 45 minutes or until they just barely start to brown.

Toss everything together. You can substitute fresh arugula for the green beans. If you do, just remember to add the hot pasta right on top of the arugula so that it cooks it a bit.
