I love tuna salad and I love macaroni salad, so I came up with this to blend them both, but in a healthy way! If you are not worried about cholestrol, feel free to use both the yolk and whites. Since I leave out the egg yolks, I splurge with real mayonnaise, but if you like low fat mayo....go for it. Once you have the eggs cooked and macaroni cooked and cooled, it is a snap to throw together. Ingredients:
1 (6 ounce) can tuna (packed in water) |
1/4 cup diced sweet onion |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley |
2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped (whites only) |
1/4 cup chopped walnuts |
1 cup drained and cooled cooked macaroni |
salt, to taste |
pepper, to taste |
dill weed, to taste |
mayonnaise (enough to blend) |
Directions:
1. Combine the first seven ingredients in a bowl and add enough mayonnaise to make a nice blend.
2. I like to serve this salad over a bed of shredded lettuce, with some whole wheat crackers.
