in food •  7 years ago  (edited)

Tuna Salad is a classic. I like pasta so it's great together for me!
This one is a gluten free pasta but you can use your regular
pasta you love.
Not only is it healthy from all the protein in the tuna and
vitamins in the vegetables but
it is also pretty cheap to make it!

I love summertime and the salads you can make with all
the fresh, local produce.
This Lovely Tuna pasta salad is a great one to start with!

Looks like a nice basil plant you got there! I bought mine from a local farmer's market already to go!
I just had to put it in a pot and it's there outside my kitchen door when I'm in need. Seeds are awesome though.

Looking great... but all things can't collect from my nearest market... so please post that type of salad recipe which will be very easy to make with collecting all things which will be available at any type of market.. thanks so much.....

Looks great!! yum! The herbs look fabulous!

Thank you! I love rosemary in tuna it is spectacular, even if it is just tuna and rosemary on bread...simple
yet the rosemary flavor makes it incredibly tasty!

ooh I'll have to try rosemary and tuna! Thanks!! :)

love it!!!

The first time I had it was over a decade ago in Washington DC at the Willard. It is also the most beautiful
place ever. They served tunafish with rosemary inside a empty hard boiled egg! So delicious! I love rosemary on roasted potatoes too! This is the Willard.....download.jpg

Tuna pastes are among my favorites. Basil and fresh rosemary give it a great flavor. We must be bold to combine spices and aromatic herbs to give our food on flavor.

Yes, me too, even the classic tuna with rosemary on bread is great too! Nice post of the Mosque in Romania!

Thank you. I can't wait to see your next post 😊

Mouth-watering, I love to eat salads and fruits and try to stay away from any junk food as much as i can love the way you explain the whole process.
