Tuna Pasta Salad Recipe
Hi all,
I've been trying to modify some of my summer recipes to me more WLS friendly. I think that this one turned out pretty well for those of us that don't mind eating a little pasta.
Tuna Pasta Salad
1 cup Barilla Plus elbow macaroni (prepared according to package directions)
1 6oz. can tuna packed in water, drained
1/2 cup 2% reduced fat cheddar cheese
1/2 cup tiny peas, frozen
1/2 cup Miracle Whip Light
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
1. As pasta is boiling, put frozen peas in colander. When pasta is done, drain over the frozen peas (this will thaw the peas).
2. Mix all ingredients in a bowl. Salt and pepper to liking.
3. Done!
This makes approximately 6 - 1/2 cup servings. Per Serving: Calories: 122, Fat: 5g, Carbs: 11g, Fiber: 2g, Protein: 11g
