Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

3 large eggs

2 ¾ cups macaroni

½ (10 ounce) package frozen English peas

2 (5 ounce) cans tuna, drained

3 tablespoons mayonnaise

¼ teaspoon salt

⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, remove from heat, and let eggs stand in hot water for 15 minutes. Remove eggs from hot water, cool under cold running water, and peel.

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add macaroni pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain and rinse under cold water.

Put frozen peas into a colander and rinse with hot water; drain well.

Place macaroni and peas in a large bowl. Dice eggs and add to the bowl. Put tuna in the bowl, flaking it apart.

Stir mayonnaise into tuna mixture, a little at a time, until mixture is moist but not soggy. Season with salt and pepper and mix one last time. Cover and refrigerate for a least 1 hour or overnight.
