Cold Tuna Noodles
"This is an easy cold snack or lunch to have handy. I've set is out at barbecues in the summer and always get compliments, even though it isn't what you expect to have as a side when grilling out."

Delicious! I cut the recipe in half and it worked out perfect...the only change I made was using fresh mushrooms...I loved the slight taste of chili powder it gave the dish a nice kick...I saved some of the dressing to add after it chilled for the hour...my experience is that noodles suck up all the dressing/liquids while chilling...I added the reserved dressing and it brought it back to a nice creaminess...wasn't sure if the peas were to be thawed first...so I threw them in frozen...and they were thawed by eating time...loved this easy to make dish...Made for Spring 2014 PAC...=)
