TUNA PASTA SALAD RECIPE | SOUTHERN LIVING

If the words "tuna pasta salad" conjure images of gloopy mayonnaise and mushy macaroni, stop right there. Our lightened up, brightened up version is made with a lemon-herb vinaigrette and al dente rotini. The pasta salad is packed with fresh arugula, cherry tomatoes, and some pickled peppers for a pop of heat and color. We recommend using good-quality tuna packed in oil. It has more flavor than the water-packed kind and a rich (not dry) texture. This summery salad is delicious served chilled or at room temperature.

TUNA PASTA SALAD RECIPE | COOKING LIGHT

This healthy tuna pasta salad is soon to become a go-to for an easy lunch or picnic meal. We've made it gluten-free with quinoa-and-corn pasta, but you can easily swap in a whole-wheat pasta. It’s packed with fresh flavor, thanks to herbs and veggies. Jarred tuna (we like the brand Tonino) makes for a flaky protein that’s not overly fishy. The entire dish is wrapped in a light dressing for extra creaminess.
