Jenn at Frugal Upstate is hosting a Frugal Food Series, and I thought I would play along. This weeks frugal food is Tuna, so here is my absolute favorite tuna recipe, courtesy of my friend Dana. Dana's Tuna Pasta Salad
2 c. shell pasta
1 6 oz. can of tuna, drained
1 large carrot, grated
1/4 c. chopped onion
3/4 c. mayonnaise
1/4 c. milk
1 T. lemon juice
2 t. prepared mustard
1 t. dill weed
1/2 t. salt
1/8 t. pepper
Cook pasta and drain. In the mean time, combine with remaining ingredients well. Mix well with pasta. Chill at least one hour. Serve.
Trust me, you want it to sit for at least an hour. It is a totally different food. Now that I can't eat pasta, I am looking for something to replace the pasta with.

Thanks so much for linking to this for the "Frugal Food Series: Tuna". It seems like a great BBQ or Picnic dish!
What if you experimented with replacing the pasta with rice or potatoes? Or is it that you are avoiding all carbs? If that were the case you could try blanched broccoli or something-although it would be a totally different dish. . .
