Recipe instructions

  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. Cut up the cheese into bite size pieces and set a side.
  3. Drain the tuna and set aside.
  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. After it's well mixed add the rest of the ingredients leaving out the paprika.
  6. Once everything is mixed well add the paprika (it's just for color).
  7. Depending on your taste you might want to add more mayo, paprika, or pickle relish.
  8. I usually add more mayo the next day. Chill for 10-20 minutes in the fridge and serve.
