Tuna Macaroni Salad
By: *Parsley*
Aug 13, 2007
Yup, another tuna macaroni salad. I really like this one, though. I always use mild curry powder to keep it "crowd-friendly". I've never made it with a hotter, spicer curry powder so I can't recommend it. Like most macaroni salads, you'll probably want to moisten it with some milk before serving.... especially the next day.
SERVES 8 -10
Ingredients
- 2 cups small shell pasta, can use elbows
- 1 (12 ounce) can albacore tuna in water, drained and flaked
- 1 cup chopped onion

- 1/2 cup chopped carrot
- 2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped

- 1/4 cup low-fat milk

- 1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Wow!! Making this was a walk down memory lane. My mother used to make a tuna macaroni salad while I was growing up probably at least monthly. My kids don't care for tuna so I haven't had this for more than 20 years. I decided to make half the recipe and enjoy it for lunches this week. I left out the radishes as I forgot to get them and left the curry out of the dressing, otherwise made as written. Thanks Parsley for a great macaroni salad!!!!

Since there are two of us I halved this recipe. I also changed it quite a bit but only due to what I had on hand or rather didn't and personal taste. I didn't have sour cream so I used low fat ranch dressing instead. I also don't care for curry or radishes so I left those out. I added bon appetit seasoning, garlic salt, lemon pepper and some mustard. It turned out great thanks for what we called Tuna Salad Medley.
