"Some of the best recipes are the most simple. This is one of those. I prefer it just as written, but you may add any ingredients you choose such as chopped onion, scallions, chives, water chestnuts, chopped hard-boiled eggs, lemon-pepper, dill, parsley, etc. I often take this to potlucks when I need a quick and easy (and economical) dish. I've..."

Ingredients: pasta shells, albacore tuna...

"This pasta salad is so easy to make. Very little chopping, if you use prepackaged shredded cabbage coleslaw mix. Inexpensive, too!
If you don't like curry powder, use paprika in place of it. :)"

Ingredients: pepper, curry powder...

"I came up with this one night to satisfy both my husband's wish for an olive oil-based pasta dish, and my craving for artichokes. We really enjoyed this hot and also the next day for lunch as a cold pasta salad. Cooking times are approximate since I didn't keep track, but it is a fairly good guess. Everything should only be cooked until heated..."

Ingredients: small shell pasta, water-packed artichoke hearts...

"A tasty light main dish salad. Good summer meal, either for lunch or a light supper."

Ingredients: small shell pasta, dried dill...

"Yup, another tuna macaroni salad. I really like this one, though. I always use mild curry powder to keep it "crowd-friendly". I've never made it with a hotter, spicer curry powder so I can't recommend it. Like most macaroni salads, you'll probably want to moisten it with some milk before serving.... especially the next day."

Ingredients: albacore tuna in water, pepper...

"This is a great quick lunch or side dish. It is as simple and fast as the boxed mac n cheese, but heartier! Servings are 4 little kids lunches or 4 small side-dish servings. This is great with frozen peas or diced ham stirred in. Or add chopped broccoli florets (fresh or frozen) and match stick carrots to the boiling water with the pasta."

Ingredients: milk, Velveeta cheese...

"I've made this quick dinner for years. I have to fight my husband for the leftovers the next day. If you cannot find calamata olives: use 15-20 finely chopped capers instead. Feel free to add a little more fresh garlic for a spicy effect (I do). Bon appetite!"

Ingredients: feta cheese, fresh basil leaves...

"This recipe calls for 24 jumbo shells pasta but the program won't let me enter this as an ingredient; it wants a weight or size.
Also, I would suggest you cook more than that as some may break apart and not be usable.

"This is a one pan mess! I love this because it is so easy to make. I must give credit to the Kraft Foods website because this is where I got the idea from. HOWEVER I did modify the recipe a bit, because first off I didn't write down what I needed and thought I could remember so when I got home I had to
improvise. I served this to my somewhat..."
