Tuna Salad with Noodles
Loaded with delicious ingredients and creamy dressing, this old-fashioned tuna macaroni salad is a classic recipe for all your summer gatherings.
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 2 cups dried macaroni, cooked according to package directions and drained
- 10 ounces tuna in water, drained
- 1½ cups mayonnaise
- ½ cup celery, finely diced
- ½ cup sweet yellow onion, finely diced
- 3 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
- 1 teaspoon dill
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Using a large mixing bowl, add the cooked macaroni, tuna, mayonnaise, diced celery, diced onion, pickle relish, dill, kosher salt, and pepper. Stir to combine thoroughly.
- Cover well and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour before serving.
Notes
- Make sure to choose tuna packed in water. Tuna in oil would change the consistency of this salad.
- You can make this dish ahead of time. It needs to chill for at least one hour and the flavor gets even better the longer it sits.
- Mix the ingredients together gently as you don’t want to break the pieces of pasta.
