Hi friends! Here is another installment of my Dinner For Two series! The last couple of video recipes, I’ve been cooking steak, and jumbo shrimp. Obviously not everyone wants to indulge in something heavy all the time, nor can everyone afford to eat T-bone steaks all the time (I know I can’t!). With this video I wanted to make something that we all can afford to eat and make. We’re making Tuna Pasta Salad. This recipe is super easy to put together. It’s honestly beautiful salad. It’s a creamy pasta salad full of crunchy vegetables and fork tender tuna. If you’re not a tuna lover, you can replace it with chicken.
This meal is super affordable! I personally spent less than $5 to make this( I’m a couponer!) and I had plenty of left overs! You can serve this along with some bread sticks, and a small green salad to make this dish a complete meal. Also, if you’re a wine lover I suggest a nice white wine.
Enjoy!

Hi Rosie… I just recently stumbled on to you via utube. I’ve tried and succeded at making several dishes i.e., citrus turkey breast and homemade stuffing for Thanksgiving day extras. I’ve made waffles and other breakfast dishes following your recipes. Everything has turned out perfect. I’ve began to plan Sunday meals around your recipes. Thanks so much for becoming my go to person in the kitchen. Looking forward to following many more of your recipes in the future.
