You'd been at nursery all day, pootling about, and were starving. So this was a variation on an oldie (but a goodie).
You'll need (for two adults and one small person)
a couple of handfuls of purple sprouting broccoli
a tin of tuna in sunflower/olive oil
a clove of garlic, finely sliced/smashed
a lemon
lots of parmesan cheese
pasta
Stick the pasta on to cook in lots of boiling water.
Drain the oil from the tuna into a frying pan. Once it's heated up, add the garlic, and cook for a minute or so. Add the purple sprouting broccoli, and swish round and round in the pan for 3-4 minutes, until it's turned a dark greeny-purple colour. Add the tuna to the pan, breaking up any large chunks. Squeeze the juice of a lemon on top, and let it heat through. (If you like it really really lemony you could add some lemon zest at this point too.)
By this stage, your pasta should be cooked. Drain, mix the whole lot together and serve with lashings of parmesan cheese.
