Cold Tuna Salad

6 ingredients
8 steps

Ingredients

  • 4 (8 ounce) tuna (I use about 4 or 5 8oz. cans)
  • 1 (8 ounce) package sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 1/2 cups Miracle Whip
  • 3 tablespoons pickle relish (based on pref.)
  • 1 (1 lb) pasta noodles (I use small shells)
  • 1 -2 tablespoon paprika (for color)

Directions

  1. 1
    Cook the the pasta noodles, drain and set in the fridge to chill. Don't worry about them sticking together they'll separate once you start mixing (spread them out on a cook sheet for less sticking and for a quick chill put them in the freezer for about 10 minutes).
  2. 2
    Cut up the cheese into bite size pieces and set a side.
  3. 3
    Drain the tuna and set aside.
  4. 4
    In a large (about 4-qt) bowl divide the pasta in half and mix in 1/2 the tuna, cheese, mayo and pickle relish.
  5. 5
    After it's well mixed add the rest of the ingredients leaving out the paprika.
  6. 6
    Once everything is mixed well add the paprika (it's just for color).
  7. 7
    Depending on your taste you might want to add more mayo, paprika, or pickle relish.
  8. 8
    I usually add more mayo the next day. Chill for 10-20 minutes in the fridge and serve.
