Tasty Tuna Tater Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, add the green beans, potatoes, and lemon.
• Drizzle the vegetables with 2 teaspoons of olive oil and season with salt, pepper, paprika, rosemary, thyme, and garlic. Mix until evenly coated.
• Add the bell pepper halves to the center of the baking sheet and drizzle with the remaining teaspoon of olive oil, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ½ teaspoon of pepper.
• Roast for 20 minutes until vegetables are golden brown. Let cool.
• Make the tuna salad: combine the tuna, celery, Greek yogurt, salt, pepper, and parsley in a medium bowl.
• Add a large handful of greens to 2 bowls. Divide the roasted vegetables and bell pepper halves between the bowls. Add a hard-boiled egg, if desired. Scoop the tuna salad into the bell peppers.
• Serve with a balsamic vinaigrette, if desired.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• 1. Place drained, cooked and cubed potatoes in a large bowl.
• 2. Put drained tuna in a small bowl with the 2 teaspoons of lemon juice; stir well and set aside while you add other ingredients to the potatoes. Adding lemon juice helps to get rid of the fishy taste of the tuna.
• 3. Add the sweet relish, mustard, ranch and Italian dressings to potatoes while they are hot. Gently stir to coat the potatoes. Be careful, as they break up if handled roughly while hot.
• 4. Add the tuna and boiled eggs to the potato mixture. Stir in the chopped and minced veggies -onion, celery, carrot and red bell pepper. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• 5. Mix well. Can serve at room temperature or cold. It is even better the next day or two, as the flavors meld in the refrigerator.
• 6. Serve on a bed of lettuce with or without the optional garnishes. Enjoy!!
• 7. ***Optional Garnishes • A sprinkling of shredded Cheddar Cheese • Tri-color tortilla strips placed on top • A couple of Capelle Tomatoes, cut in half and placed on the side of the plate (since tomatoes aren't in season; these seem to have better, fresher taste than some you buy in the stores)

Steps:

• In a small mixing bowl break up the tuna with a fork. Toss with the celery, onion and parsley. Add the mayonnaise, mustard and season with pepper, to taste. Stir to combine. Add lemon juice, to taste, if using.

Steps:

• Toss cherry tomatoes, olive oil, shallot, garlic, oregano and vinegar in a large bowl. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season generously with salt.
• Add pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes, depending on the shape and brand of pasta. With a spider or slotted spoon, strain pasta directly into tomato mixture and toss to combine. Season to taste with more salt and pepper.
• Stir in flakes of tuna and serve with a drizzle of olive oil on top. The pasta can be served hot or at room temperature.
