This mac salad is not like those youll find in the store or at KFC. It's more of a meal than a side dish, hope you enjoy. :chef

Start by boiling water in a large pot, add your pasta and cook about 8 minutes, should be al dente, dont want it mushy, drain and rinse with cold water until pasta is cool. Put pasta, tuna, onions and any veggie you are using together with other ingredients in a large bowl and GENTLY mix, so you dont get good all over like I do, chill until ready to eat

I can also draw and crochet, I crocheted a lot when my 1st grandchild was due now I make her cute things to wear only they're jewelry type things lol the other 3 are my handsome little men who normally aren't interested in jewelry but occasionally get some jewelry too, at least the older 2.
