Seashell Salad


Seashell Salad


Ingredients:

Small shell pasta salad
Tuna-drained
Green Olives-diced
Onion-diced
Celery-diced

Dressing:
Mayonnaise-approximately 1 cup
Sugar-approximately 1/2 cup
Vinegar-approximately 2 Tablespoons
Milk- approximately 1/2 cup


Directions:

Cook desired amount of pasta according to package directions. Drain and rinse. Add olives, onion & celery.  Whisk dressing together and pour over salad.

*This is a recipe from my Mother-in-law, I don't remember how she makes it exactly...
*This is for a sure one of those recipes that you toss things together and make how you like.
*I hate canned tuna, so if I want to eat it, I use chicken.
*I also like to add green pepper.
*For the dressing, I start with the mayo, and add in things until it tastes good.
* I like to make plenty of dressing, after sitting in the fridge for a day or two, it dries out a little.
*Ryan LOVES this salad, and I'm trying to keep it in the fridge for him this summer. It's been so very hot- and this is a light, but filling lunch for him.

This definitely made me hungry. This salad is one of the few things Ryan and I agree on! :) Btw, I have a seashell salad that might even be easier that I will tell you about soon....
