I did add a couple of things while making this recipe ~ I used 1 can of albacore tuna & a bit larger amount of canned chicken breast, then also added several tablespoons of honey Dijon mustard with the mayo! Oh, yes, I also just barely steamed the peas since I'd be happy to eat them raw, while my other half prefers them a little bit cooked! Anyway, however it's done, this keeper of a recipe makes for a VERY TASTY MAC SALAD! Thanks for sharing it! [Tagged, made & reviewed in New Kids on the Block tag]
