Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 cup seashell pasta

  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped

  • ½ cup iceberg lettuce, rinsed and chopped

  • 1 (5 ounce) can tuna, drained

  • 1 (15 ounce) can peas, drained

  • ½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese

  • ½ cup creamy Italian salad dressing, or more to taste

Directions

  1. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a boil. Stir in seashell pasta, and return to a boil. Cook pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, but still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain.

  2. Place green onions and lettuce in a large bowl. Add pasta, tuna, peas, and grated Cheddar cheese; mix well. Stir in dressing; toss to coat.

Cook's Note:

Substitute your favorite creamy salad dressing for the creamy Italian dressing if you wish.
