    Default Macaroni Tuna Salad

    8 oz of elbow macaroni, cooked and cooled
    1 can of tuna, drained. I prefer the chunk lite.
    1 medium diced onion
    1 medium diced bell pepper
    1 tablespoon of dill relish
    10 olives, sliced
    1/4 cup of Mayonnaise
    1/4 cup of Miracle whip
    1 teaspoon of horseradish
    Salt and pepper to taste

    Combine all of the above ingredients in a salad bowl and mix very well to combine and coat all the pasta with the dressing. Refrigerate for several hours before serving.

    I like to garnish the top of my salad with fresh dill if I have it on hand. Parsley is a good alternative.

    Default Stuffed Tomato Tuna Salad

    Slice a good sized tomato like a beefsteak in half, clean out the inside pulp. Lightly salt the inside shell and invert on a paper towel to draw out moisture.

    For the salad
    1 can of tuna in oil, drained
    As much fresh dill to taste
    6 pitted black olives diced
    2 tablespoons of a olive oil, vinegar and lemon vinaigrette.
    Salt and pepper to taste

    Combine the ingredients for the salad and fill the tomato shells with it. refrigerate to let the flavors combine for about 15-20 minutes.

    I like to use the meat of the tomato in my own tomato but it does add a bit to much moisture.

    I'm a really big fan of creamed tuna over toast Mama. You beat me to it, lol. Lots of pepper though. Lots of pepper.

    Has anyone tried the tuna that comes in a pouch yet? I'm just wondering if it's just the same product in different packaging.

    Same product, less liquid, less product, higher price. I've bought it on special a couple times and each time when I open it up I ask why I bought it.

    If you are going to make a fancy presentation, it is chunkier than my usual cheap can of flakes, and the shape of a small fish fillet if you slide it out of the pouch.

    I love to get good tuna in olive oil and ciabatta buns if I can find them.
    I prefer the olive oil mayo. Add some green leaf lettuce, fresh tomato, salt and pepper. Makes a great sandwich. I love olives and a pickle on the side.

    Take your favorite crabcake recipe and substitute canned tuna for the crab.
