TUNA & ARTICHOKE PASTA SALAD



Tuna & Artichoke Pasta Salad image

I have been making this light, tangy pasta salad ever since I was at the University of Wyoming in the late 1980s. Made with pantry ingredients, it's quick and easy. A nice lunch or summertime dinner with fresh fruit or hearty bread. Sometimes I add halved cherry or grape tomatoes for a little sweetness. Leftovers are just as good! (Prep time does not include cooking time for pasta.)

SIMPLE TUNA PASTA SALAD



Simple Tuna Pasta Salad image

Some of the best recipes are the most simple. This is one of those. I prefer it just as written, but you may add any ingredients you choose such as chopped onion, scallions, chives, water chestnuts, chopped hard-boiled eggs, lemon-pepper, dill, parsley, etc. I often take this to potlucks when I need a quick and easy (and economical) dish. I've never had to take home left-overs. Tuna pasta salads can be found at many pot lucks. Albacore tuna is plentiful on the Pacific Coast, and this recipe represents the Western U.S.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 ounces pasta shells or 12 ounces macaroni, cooked and drained
12 ounces canned chunk albacore tuna, drained
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup frozen green pea, thawed
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise (this amount is an estimate, you'll need enough to make the salad creamy) or 1 1/2 cups Miracle Whip (this amount is an estimate, you'll need enough to make the salad creamy)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Combine the cooked and drained pasta with the drained tuna, chopped celery, peas, and mayonnaise, using only enough mayonnaise for the salad to be creamy.
  • (If it's made ahead, you may need more because the pasta will absorb the mayo.) Chill at least 1- 2 hours before serving.

EASY TUNA PASTA SALAD



Easy Tuna Pasta Salad image

We make this easy pasta salad a lot in the summer - it's delicious at room temp or cold on hot days, and there's no mayo in it, so it travels well, too. We also make this during the winter, to remember what summer tasted like. It makes a great light lunch or dinner. Adapted from a Gourmet recipe.

TUNA TARRAGON PASTA SALAD



Tuna Tarragon Pasta Salad image

My husband and I love the unique flavor of the tuna pasta salad at our local Sweet Tomatoes restaurant. The natural sweetness from the tarragon blends beautifully with the mild tuna. I developed this recipe at home and it comes really close to real thing...maybe even surpassing it. The restaurant chain uses a mixed pasta consisting of broken spinach fettucini, broken regular fettucini and sea shells, but I don't usually keep all those pastas on-hand. I also took the liberty of adding peas (I just love peas and tuna together).

Provided by Mercy

Categories     Tuna

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup mayonnaise or 1 cup salad dressing
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon lemon juice or 1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tablespoon dried tarragon
1 tablespoon dijon-style mustard
1 teaspoon sugar (1 to 2 teaspoons, to taste)
2 (12 ounce) cans tuna in water, drained (or albacore)
2 cups frozen green peas, no need to thaw
1 lb shell pasta, cooked to al dente, drained and cooled
1/4 teaspoon salt (to taste)
1/8 teaspoon pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Whisk together the first six (dressing) ingredients.
  • Fold in the tuna and peas.
  • Toss in the pasta.
  • Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Chill at least two hours before serving.
  • The pasta will absorb the dressing, the flavors will blend and the dried tarragon flavor will really blossom.

EASY TUNA PASTA SALAD WITH ARTICHOKES AND CROUTONS



Easy Tuna Pasta Salad With Artichokes and Croutons image

Super fast and easy to make. I've made this when I only had 30 minutes before having to leave for work. I've tweaked it over time, but I've finally found the right combination.

Provided by AllyKapone

Categories     Low Cholesterol

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (12 ounce) box tri-color spiral pasta
2 (8 ounce) cans tuna, drained
1/2 cup grape tomatoes
1 (12 ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, use only 1/3 jar
2 tablespoons mayonnaise, heaping
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, shredded
1 cup crouton, Caesar is a good choice

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta as directed on the box.
  • Rinse pasta with cold water and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
  • Add tuna, grape tomatoes,artichoke hearts, and mayo. You may use more or less artichokes as you like -- I find that 1 jar of artichoke hearts is good to make this recipe 3 times, which is why I say use a third of it. Same with mayo -- use more or less to your tasting.
  • Mix well.
  • sprinkle cheese and croutons.
  • enjoy :).
