TUNA MACARONI SALAD - PROTEIN PACKED



Tuna Macaroni Salad - Protein Packed image

I made up this recipe to have more protein and less noodles because I try to not do bread/noodles that much, but I LOVE Tuna Macaroni Salad. This was a good compromise for me. Make sure to use mayo, not miracle whip or salad dressing.

MACARONI TUNA SALAD

This macaroni salad is great for lunch on its own, if you don't feel like cooking on those hot summer days. It's also a wonderful side for grilled food. I have perfected it -- after making many different types of macaroni salad, this one is my favorite. Enjoy!!

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
1 pint grape tomatoes
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the macaroni, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink. Transfer the macaroni to a bowl, and cool in the refrigerator.
  • In a large bowl, lightly toss the tuna with celery, onion, and about 1 cup mayonnaise until combined, then stir in the remaining mayonnaise, macaroni, olives, and grape tomatoes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Let the salad chill in refrigerator 1 hour.
