Tuna Pasta Macaroni Salad. I love this easy meal prep recipe. I prefer to store in fridge for at least 3 hours... but best overnight for a cold macaroni salad. Using solid white Albacore tuna fish is preferred. Elbow macaroni is more traditional for this pasta salad recipe. There are many variations of cold pasta salad, but I prefer the simple classic one that has bold lemon flavor. A tip for the kitchen is to put your tuna fish cans and pasta in the fridge before mixing it together. I added more mayonnaise than the recipe below, because I like my pasta salad creamy. This creation is perfect for a summer party!
