Tuna Macaroni Salad Recipe - Food.com image

You'll crave this salad once you try it, this also works well with chicken in place of the tuna, please do not omit the sweet pickles they *make* this salad! adjust all amounts to suit taste, plan ahead this needs to chill before serving, cooking time is chilling time

Total Time 3 hours 30 minutes

Prep Time 30 minutes

Cook Time 3 hours

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups uncooked macaroni noodles
2 (6 ounce) cans tuna, drained (can use 3 cans)
4 -5 green onions, chopped or 1 onion, finely chopped
1 small green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 stalk celery, finely diced
1 1/2 cups chopped sweet pickles (can use more or less, do not squeeze out any juice from the pickles)
1 cup mayonnaise (I use half of each) or 1 cup salad dressing (I use half of each)
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish (optional or to taste)
1 tablespoon garlic powder (yes 1 tablespoon or even 1-1/2 tablespoons!)
1 -2 tablespoon prepared yellow mustard
1 teaspoon seasoning salt (or to taste, or use white salt)
fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
1/2 teaspoon paprika
3 -4 hard-boiled eggs (quartered) (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook macaroni in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender; drain then rinse well under cold water; place in a bowl then toss with 1 tablespoon oil to prevent sticking.
  • Add in tuna, onion, bell pepper, celery and sweet pickles; toss to combine.
  • In a bowl mix together mayonnaise with sour cream, sweet relish (if using) garlic powder, yellow mustard (start with 1 tablespoon mustard) and seasoned salt; add to the macaroni mixture; mix well to combine.
  • Season with black pepper to taste.
  • Arrange the cooked egg wedges around the inside of the bowl, then dust the top of the salad and eggs lightly with paprika.
  • Cover and chill at least 3 hours before serving (the longer chilling time the better!).
