Tuna
Salad
(makes about 10 cups)
Ingredients
1 box
pasta shells, any size (I prefer medium, not too big or
small)
6 boiled egg whites, (no yolks)
4 or 5 baby dill pickles
14-1/2 cup frozen peas (add more or less to suit your taste)
1-2 6 oz cans of Albacore tuna
mayonnaise
milk
Directions
Boil shells according
to package directions, drain and rinse until cold. While
boiling the pasta, slice the pickles into thin slices, as
well as the egg. In a large bowl, add egg, pickle, peas
and tuna to shells. Stir in enough mayonnaise to make it
just about to a creamy consistency, add a dash of milk and
mix well. It's always better to have the salad too dry than
too wet, as it's easier to fix. Add salt if desired, although
I usually find the pickles provide enough on their own.
Refrigerate for 3-4 hours to allow the flavors to develop
and become thoroughly chilled. Great for picnics or alone
as a main dish!
