Instructions
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir garlic until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir zucchini, salt, Italian herbs, and red pepper flakes into garlic oil; cook and stir until zucchini begins to soften, about 5 minutes.
Mix in marinara sauce and water and bring sauce to a boil.
Gently mix tuna into sauce. Simmer until zucchini are almost tender, 7 to 10 more minutes.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; stir in elbow macaroni. Cook until still firm, about 7 minutes.
Mix elbow macaroni into tuna sauce until thoroughly combined. Taste for salt levels and adjust if necessary. Turn off heat, cover pan, and let pasta and sauce stand for exactly 6 minutes and 15 seconds. Pasta will soak up the sauce and become more tender.
Serve in bowls and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
