Time 1h45m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni
2 (5 ounce) cans white tuna, drained and flaked
2 stalks celery, minced
1 onion, minced
2 cups mayonnaise
1 (5 ounce) jar pimento-stuffed green olives, drained

Transfer the macaroni to a bowl, and cool in the refrigerator.

TUNA-MACARONI SALAD



Tuna-Macaroni Salad image

You pretty much already have everything you need to make this side dish, a great accompaniment to fried or grilled proteins. Some people love raw onion and celery, but you can leave them out or keep them in as you like. Make sure you use tuna packed in water. (Tuna in olive oil will make the salad too oily.) It's best chilled - don't serve it at room temperature - its creamy unctuousness balances out the heat (from spice or from cooking) of whatever it's paired with.

Categories     pastas, salads and dressings, seafood, main course, side dish

Time 3h15m

Yield 10 to 12 servings
