And it’s one of my simple go-to’s that always comes in so handy! Especially this time of year, when winter has finally left and there’s so much to do and take care of! So I really wanted to bring this one back, as I’m sure a lot of younger people have probably never even heard if it. They’re a lifelong friend for a reason…they TASTE good! ? These recipes sure do help out and come in handy when you just can’t, don’t want to, or don’t feel good enough to do anything else. Fold in the tuna until everything is nicely coated….Ī super simple side dish, or even a lunch or light supper!! Easy as that! ?
#How to make mac n cheese tangier full
Get a large saucepan full of hot water, bring to a boil, make your mac ‘n cheese according to the directions….įold in your tuna last, breaking it up into bigger chunks than what you want to end up with. ? Then set this aside right by the stove. This way, you don’t risk breaking them up and turning them into mush. *This is why it’s good to not thaw the peas. It’s just mayo (or Miracle Whip, if your prefer a lighter, tangier taste), thinly sliced celery, sweet pickle relish, sweet red onion, frozen sweet baby peas (or canned/drained), and a little salt and pepper to start! ? I didn’t even need to look at the old, tattered recipe, (torn off from the back of a box of Kraft), as I had made it so many times way back when, that it was permanently burned into my brain! ? (You know “those recipes”, too, I’m sure!) And after staring into the cupboard and fridge for what seemed like eternity, that can of tuna and yellow box of cheesy shells said “Pick me! Pick me!!” It was just too easy. I was so busy with so many other things, that I really needed to be able to whip something up fast and easily. Chock full of veggies and tuna – – creamy and a little bit cheesy – – CHEAP! – – and always went down good on a hot summer’s day! Though it’s called a “salad”, it was a staple and main dish for us! I hadn’t made this “Seacoast Salad” in WAY too many years, and this past weekend was perfect timing!
