Method
Cooking the Pasta
- Begin by boiling water in a large pot. Once it reaches a rolling boil, add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool.
Preparing the Vegetables
- While the pasta cooks, dice the celery, bell pepper, and red onion. Set aside.
Making the Dressing
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix until well blended.
Combining Ingredients
- Add the cooled pasta, drained tuna, and diced veggies to the dressing. Gently fold everything together until the pasta is well coated.
Serving
- Transfer the salad to a serving bowl. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve chilled. Enjoy!
Notes
For a creamier salad, let it chill in the fridge for about an hour before serving to allow flavors to meld. Can be served with garlic bread or a light green salad.
