Get a pan.
Put olive oil into it until the floor is covered.
Cut up 3 big onions.
Cut up three to five tomatoes, cover the slices in pepper and oregano.
Put sliced onions into the hot olive oil. Fizzzz! Watch out!
Add oregano. (Lots) And pepper.
Open can of tuna. Add tuna to the onions in the pan.
Let it fry for a couple minutes, until the onions are brown and the tuna has gotten some heat.
Add the tomatoes.
Add more olive oil as you see fit. Olive oil is very healthy.
Stir and fry, until it looks like barf and smells delicious.
Put it over your spaghetti. Enjoy.

Hello my friends.
If you want an easier way to grate cheese for your favorite alfredo cheese sauce...
Keep your cheese in the freezer. Then when you need it , let it on the counter for 20 to 30 minutes. Than just brake it down with your hands, almost like washing your hands.
P.S; Make sure you washed your hands first.
BTW… posted by Ryoki...<you frenchies have a cooking gene.>
I think that Ryoki was referring to me confusing Pext with pete.
I’m the frenchie.
Take Care!
