Spaghetti with Tuna, Lemon, and Breadcrumbs | Everyday Food with Sarah Carey

Don't you just love it when you can pull together a great meal out of seemingly nothing? Sometimes I find that on those days when my refrigerator is empty and all I have is what's in my pantry, that's when I'm most creative in the kitchen. Take today's recipe, for example, which is made up entirely of kitchen staples: spaghetti, canned tuna, Kalamata olives, lemon, and breadcrumbs. The only thing you might need to buy is fresh parsley.
Sarah's Tip of the Day:
Watch the video and I'll show you how to make your own breadcrumbs in minutes using the heels of your loaf, and I'll tell you my trick for getting the breadcrumbs super crispy. I'll also show you the one ingredient that makes your pasta meld together beautifully (hint: It's in the water).
