"Macaroni salad the way mom used to make. Measurements are more according to taste - add more or less of what you like/don't like."

• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 453.59 g elbow macaroni (or any pasta noodle you like)
• 4-6 hard-boiled eggs, cut into chunks
• 170.09 g can tuna fish
• 2-3 stalk celery, diced
• 1 onion, diced
• 3-4 radishes, diced
• 2-3 sprig fresh parsley, chopped finely
• 59.16-73.94 ml mayonnaise

directions

1. Boil the macaroni in water with a pinch or so of salt. Drain and put in a large bowl.
2. Drain the tuna fish and mash up the chunks with a fork. Add it to the noodles.
3. Add the radishes, celery, parsley, onion and eggs to the noodles, and mix it up.
4. Add the mayonnaise. I like lots of mayo, some like a thin covering. Add a little at first and see if you want more. Mix thoroughly.
5. Add a few shakes of paprika. Refrigerate for at least an hour or so.

Let me be the first to review the first recipe you have posted!!! I prepared this recipe for lunch, reduced the ingredients to four servings. I wanted to use up some things in the fridge so added them to the salad; hard-boiled eggs,celery,green onions,orange pepper,chicken and radishes. I like this basic recipe, it would be good with ham and chicken too. A good, easy recipe!
