This may have some strange ingredients, but it is the only kind of macaroni salad I will eat! It started as a fourth grade experiment on trying to incorporate all five food groups into a simple, tasty recipe. Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) package tri-color pasta |
1 cup creamy salad dressing |
1/2 (1 ounce) package ranch dressing mix |
1 (12 ounce) can tuna, drained and flaked |
1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
1 medium apple - peeled, cored, and chopped |
1 large carrot, peeled and chopped |
1/3 cup raisins |
Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta, cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until al dente. Drain, and cool. 2. In a large bowl, mix the cooled pasta, creamy salad dressing, ranch dressing mix, tuna, Cheddar cheese, apple, carrot, and raisins. Chill 1 hour in the refrigerator before serving. |
