For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the sauce before serving. If you prefer a richer sauce, stir in a tablespoon of butter or cream cheese. Feel free to substitute the fettuccine with your favorite pasta shape, such as penne or rotini. For a vegetarian option, replace the tuna with sautéed mushrooms or roasted vegetables.
