Tuna Salad

This is a dish my mom has been preparing for years, my Grama Louise makes it too, so I can only presume it is a long standing family dish. I know many others that make this, but none exactly like us and this is my preferred version.
***********************************
Ingredients Needed:
1 can of tuna in water, drained
4 stalks of diced celery
1 8 oz. package small shell noodles
3/4-1 cup Kraft Miracle Whip
1/8 tsp. Lawry’s Season salt
1/8 tsp. onion salt
1/8 tsp. pepper

1. Boil water for noodles, cook, and cold rinse them when they are done.
2. Take drained tuna and place in medium sized bowl, mix in pepper, onion salt, and Lawry’s Season salt.
3. Mix in chopped celery.
4. Add in cold rinsed noodles.
5. Stir in Miracle Whip.
************************************
Variations:
I know people who add onion, peas, or cheese. Have also seen egg in it. Some substitute salmon in place of tuna. Most people use mayonnaise and not Miracle Whip, but to me, Miracle Whip rocks.

ENJOY!!
