GRANDMA BARBARA'S TUNA SALAD

Add this tuna pasta salad to your cookouts this summer. It's a combination of tuna, egg, and pasta salad all in one. Sweet, savory, and creamy, it's a delicious side dish. We love the fact it's chilled. We thought it tasted better after it sat for a bit and cold out of the fridge.

GRANDMA WELLS' TUNA MACARONI SALAD

Creamy, full of texture and flavor, we loved this tuna macaroni salad. The chunks of white tuna make this a hearty salad. Onion and celery add a nice crunch. We really enjoyed the slightly sweet pop of flavor from the peas. In the warmer months, this will make a nice light lunch or dinner. Perfect for potlucks and picnics too.

TUNA-MACARONI SALAD

If there is such a thing as comfort salad, then this is it: A cold and creamy, mayonnaise-laden pasta that evokes your grandma's "tuna mac," but made a touch more sophisticated with the addition of cornichons and scallions. Amanda Hesser picked up the recipe, in 2006, from Clementine, a bakery and cafe in Los Angeles known for "its stylish take on home-style cooking." They were selling it for about 9 bucks a quart, but you can make it at home for about a quarter of that. Thankfully, it's no more difficult to make than Grandma's. Just boil up some macaroni and drain. Combine with two cans of tuna (if you're feeling flush, you can add chunks of cooked fresh tuna like we did for the photo) one cup of mayonnaise, chopped celery, cubed Cheddar cheese, sliced scallions and cornichons and two spoonfuls of chowchow, a green tomato relish that's an optional addition. Season well with freshly ground black pepper and serve cold.

SARASOTA'S ... --THIS IS GRANDMA'S TUNA MACARONI SALAD--

The other day on one of the posts, someone had mentioned making tuna macaroni salad for dinner and I just love that salad but haven't had it in quite a while. However, I have had so many versions over the years that have "tons" of mayo and "no" flavor it made me not want to make it anymore. But, I thought it was worth posting what I was used to having growing up. So, after looking online, I really didn't find one that was what our family made, so here it is. Now, we always served our "Tuna Mac Salad" with a bowl of creamy tomato soup (tomatoes from the garden), a loaf of bread (it didn't matter what kind, grandmas recipe fresh baked), and the Macaroni Salad was served over a bed of fresh chopped lettuce, (iceberg back then), whereas, today I use a mix of romaine and iceberg. This is still the only version I make.

Steps:

  • Pasta -- Cook according to package directions. Drain well and transfer to a large bowl and let cool as you prepare the rest of the salad.
  • Salad -- Not too much to this. To the semi cooled pasta, add in the peas, celery, onion, olives, pickles, and egg.
  • Then in a small bowl, add the dressing ingredients - mayonnaise, parsley, dill, pickle juice, mustard, salt and pepper. I add all of the dressing (but I reserve a couple of spoons) to the pasta and toss well. I reserve a couple of spoons because after it chills, I like to add just a bit more to freshen it up. It really depends on how creamy you like the pasta. I prefer it not to be too mayo tasting. Last, I fold in the tuna because I don't want to break it up too much. Just fold in.
  • Chill -- Before serving. I cover well with plastic wrap and chill at least 30 minutes to an hour and then stir once more. Add that reserved dressing if you want and season with any additional salt and pepper.
  • Garnish and Serve -- I transfer to a pretty serving bowl, garnish with the remaining sliced egg, paprika and chopped dill. This was my Macaroni and Tuna Salad.
  • As I said, over a small bed of lettuce, a cup or bowl of creamy tomato soup, and homemade bread -- ENJOY!

1 (1 lb) box elbow macaroni (I prefer a rough cut or large elbow)
2 (7 ounce) cans tuna (Note ( First, I only use tuna in water, well drained. Second, I like a lot of tuna in my salad and )
1 cup frozen baby peas
1 medium onion, fine chopped
2 celery ribs, fine chopped (and don't throw out the celery leafs, they are just as good chopped and added to the salad)
2 hard-boiled eggs, fine diced
1/2 cup green pimento stuffed olive, cut in half
3 -4 tablespoons kosher dill pickles, chopped fine (more or less to taste)
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise (no miracle whip or low fat)
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon pickle juice
1 tablespoon fresh parsley (more if you like)
1 teaspoon fresh dill
salt
pepper
paprika
1 sprig dill
1 hard-boiled egg, thin sliced

CLASSIC ROASTED SALSA

Having salsa on hand is a must in summer. This homemade version is so easy, why even bother with store-bought? We love the deep, slightly smoky flavors in this version.

  • Heat broiler, with rack in top position. Place tomatoes, onion, jalapenos, and garlic in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.

  • Discard garlic skins. In a food processor, pulse garlic and vegetables until coarsely pureed. Add lime juice, season with salt and pepper, and pulse to combine.
  • Transfer salsa to a bowl and stir in cilantro. Refrigerate up to 3 days, freeze up to 3 months.

TUNA MACARONI SALAD

Yup, another tuna macaroni salad. I really like this one, though. I always use mild curry powder to keep it "crowd-friendly". I've never made it with a hotter, spicer curry powder so I can't recommend it. Like most macaroni salads, you'll probably want to moisten it with some milk before serving.... especially the next day.

GRANDMA GRACE'S MACARONI SALAD WITH TUNA

I don't know where my mother learned to make this macaroni salad, but it is a multi generation family favorite. And it is so simple! The only family get togethers where we don't make this are Thanksgiving and Christmas. I think my father would dis-own my sister and me if one of us didn't make it for Easter! It always disappears when taken to pot-lucks and picnics. There is no mustard in it, and it is the only macaroni salad my dad will eat. My mom used to use regular tuna packed in oil, but I now use solid white albacore packed in water, whole wheat pasta and canola oil mayo in an effort to "lighten it up". Prep time includes 2 hours cool time.

Steps:

  • Cook the macaroni according to package directions for al dente doneness.
  • Drain and immediately plunge into very cold water to stop any further cooking.
  • Drain the tuna, and coarsely crumble into the drained and cooled macaroni.
  • Gently stir in about 1/2 cup of the mayonnaise.
  • Add the pickles, celery and dried dill.
  • Stir again gently adding more mayonnaise until desired coverage is achieved. (I don't like it dry, but it shouldn't be "soupy").
  • Add salt and pepper to taste, again gently stirring inches.
  • Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
  • If the salad looks a bit dry, you can add a bit more mayonnaise right before serving.
  • Garnish with fresh dill and sliced eggs if using.
