Tuna Macaroni Salad

I felt like something cold and simple, and this hit the spot. Might have some spinach on the side for extra nutrition, might not. This makes a TON of food, 6-8 servings, so you may want to halve it. There are some cool tweaks suggested on the food.com page, such as adding onion or cheddar cheese, bacon bites or granny smith apples... sky is the limit, though today I'm keeping things simple.

  • 12 ounces macaroni cooked, drained and cooled under cold water
  • 10ounces (2 cans) canned chunk albacore tuna, drained
  • 1cup chopped celery
  • 1cup frozen green peas, cooked in the microwave per directions
  • cup light mayonnaise (this amount is an estimate, you'll need enough to make the salad creamy to your preferences. One cup was perfect for me)
  • salt and pepper to taste
