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.
Ingredients:
16 ounces elbow macaroni (or any pasta noodle you like)
4 -6 hard-boiled eggs, cut into chunks
1 (6 ounce) can tuna fish
2 -3 stalks celery, diced
1/2 onion, diced
3 -4 radishes, diced
2 -3 sprigs fresh parsley, chopped finely
4 -5 tablespoons mayonnaise
paprika
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.
