Tasty Tuna Macaroni image

My fiance and I love cooking for each other, even though most of the time we end up cooking up a box of mac 'n cheese. I try to change things up a bit by adding things I have on hand. This is one I came up with one night that ended up being very good and I make it over and over on those nights when I don't have a lot of time and I don't want to make just another box of macaroni.

I loved this recipe! The tuna macaroni was creamy and flavorful, and the peas added a nice pop of color and sweetness.

This recipe was a bit too rich for my taste. I will try using less butter next time.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I will reduce the amount of salt next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the macaroni turned out mushy. I think I will cook the macaroni for less time next time.

I substituted canned salmon for the tuna and it was still very good.
