Tuna Twist

SERVES: 6

CHILL TIME: 2 Hr

We teamed a pasta salad with a tuna salad to come up with this dish that's summertime-perfect and very budget-friendly. Our Tuna Twist is a new take on an old recipe that's great for a light summer dinner. Or you can take this tuna pasta salad to a picnic or potluck (where it'll be the first thing to disappear!).

What You'll Need

1/2 pound twist pasta
2 cups mayonnaise
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 (12-ounce) can tuna, drained and flaked
1 (10-ounce) package frozen peas, thawed
2 celery stalks, thinly sliced
1/2 cup chopped red onion
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

What to Do

Cook pasta according to package directions; drain, rinse, and drain again.
In a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, vinegar, and pepper; mix well. Add pasta and remaining ingredients. Toss until well combined; cover, and chill at least 2 hours before serving.

We have a lot of pasta salad and macaroni salad at my house during the summer, so I am happy I found a recipe that also adds tuna. This recipe will be a great side dish with burgers on the grill and baked beans. I will leave out the onion, but I am intrigued by adding dill.

I love pasta salad and I love tuna salad, so this is right up my alley. Like others have mentioned, this one really has a spring-y taste to it, thanks to the dill. I also really like the peas! Gives it just a little bitty amount of sweetness. :)
