2 cups uncooked whole-wheat farfalle (bow tie pasta)
2 cans (6 ounces each) unsalted white tuna packed in water, drained
1/4 cup onions, finely chopped
2/3 cup frozen peas, thawed
2/3 cup reduced-fat salad dressing
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper, if desired
4 cups fresh spinach
Cook the pasta until it is tender, following the package directions. Drain the pasta in a colander, rinse under cold water, and drain thoroughly.
Combine all ingredients except spinach in a large bowl, tossing to mix. Place the salad mixture into the refrigerator, and chill for at least 2 hours.
Place equal portions of the spinach onto dinner plates. Top the spinach with equal portions of the tuna salad. Serve immediately.
