I guess it depends on your ingredients, like if you use a lot of cheese or other cream based ingredients.
And remember that pasta is usually a high calorie and high carb food...
You may want to use a recipe calculator to total the amount of calories in the tuna pasta bake0 -
1 tin of tuna
1 tin of green giant sweetcorn
125g penne pasta
3/4 pint semi-skimmed milk
what do u think?0 -
oh and about 40g mature white cheese0

Sounds good! Try this recipe calculator I found on another post:

thankyou for your help... unfortunately it ended up being 640calories for the whole meal! 100 carbs and 11 fat... i had no idea it'd be that bad i wish i'd looked before i had it0

It may be 640 calories for the whole meal but if you split it up between your family it will be less.0
