Ingredients

Serves:

2 tablespoons olive oil, plus additional for brushing the baking dish

1 small onion, chopped

1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes (not packed in oil), chopped

1/4 cup whole wheat flour

2 1/2 cups whole milk

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese

2 cans tuna packed in oil (5 ounces each), drained and chopped

1 can (15 ounces) artichoke hearts, drained and chopped

1/4 cup chopped fresh flat leaf parsley

2 tablespoons bottled capers, drained and coarsley chopped

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

2 teaspoons fresh lemon zest

1 tablespoon sea salt plus more for seasoning

8 ounces elbow-shaped quinoa or whole wheat noodles

Directions

Preheat oven to 375°F and lightly oil a 2-quart baking dish.

Heat oil over moderate heat in a medium saucepan and cook onion with sun-dried tomatoes, stirring, until onion is softened, about 2 minutes. Whisk in flour and cook, whisking constantly, for 2 minutes. Add milk in a slow stream, whisking constantly until smooth. Bring mixture to a boil and simmer, whisking, until slightly thickened about 5 minutes. Stir in sour cream, half of Parmesan, tuna, artichokes, parsley, capers, lemon juice and zest. Season with salt and pepper.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 1 tablespoon salt. Boil noodles, until al dente, about 4 minutes. Drain and return to pot. Stir in sauce gently into pasta and toss to combine well.

Transfer pasta mixture into prepared baking dish and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan. Bake in middle of oven until golden on top and slightly bubbling, about 20 minutes.
