Best 6 My Mothers Tuna Salad Recipes
NEW WIFE TUNA SALAD
My husband says this tuna salad is even better than his mother's. Not too pickly tasting, mild with a nice blend of flavor. You can add more mayo for a creamier salad.

MY MOTHER'S TUNA SALAD
This is Julia Reed's favorite tuna salad, the one she subsisted on for years as a child, eaten with a fork straight out of a container in her mother's refrigerator. It's an unfussy thing that is exactly suited to be layered between two pieces of white bread - toasted, if you must - and then eaten at the kitchen table, or, after summer ends, at the lunchroom table. The ingredients are simple and easily acquired, and be sure to use real mayonnaise.

MOM'S COLD TUNA SALAD
I was raised in Phoenix, Az Need I say more HOT, HOT, HOT! So 110 degrees on average in summer you don't cook much so the house doesn't get too hot. This was always well received. I still live in AZ but in the mountains so 90 degrees is much better than 110. This is such a nice easy dinner in the summer.

MOM'S TUNA PASTA SALAD
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to boil, add box of pasta to boiling water, and cook for about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Drain the pasta, and rinse in cold water to cool off the shells. Chop up the pickles and onion and add them to a large bowl. Cube the cheese (or buy the cheese already cubed to save time) and add to the pickles. Add the tuna to the pickles and cheese.
- Add the cooled pasta shells to the bowl along with the Miracle Whip and mix everything together. Add pepper and garlic powder to taste. The Miracle Whip should just evenly coat the tuna and shells, but not too thick a coat.
- Cover the bowl and chill it in the refrigerator at least 2 hours before serving.
