While the water is heating, make the pesto, heat a small fry pan with a medium heat and add in the almonds and pine nuts, mix continuously, after 3 to 4 minutes and the nuts are lightly pan roasted, remove from the pan and set aside
Add the spinach into a food processor, along with the basil leaves, garlic, the almonds & pine nuts, lemon juice, grated cheese and season with sea salt & black pepper, run the food processor for 1 to 2 minutes or until everything is finely chopped and well mixed together, then slowly pour in the olive oil with the food processor still runnnig, once you end up with a creamy sauce set aside
Once the water comes to a boil in the stock pot, add in the pasta, mix every 2 to 3 minutes
While the pasta is cooking, drain the cans of tuna into a fine sieve with a bowl underneath, gently flake the tuna, set aside
Once the pasta is cooked just al dente, reserve some of the cooking water, then drain the pasta into a colander, add the pasta back into the stock pot, along with the pesto, drained tuna and 2 to 4 tbsp (30 to 60 ml) of the reserved pasta cooking water, mix together until well mixed, add more pasta cooking water if needed
