Macaroni salad recipe

This is my family favorite. We all love it, it's super simple and great to just have in the fridge.

1 lb pasta shapes any kind is fine(I've been using free pasta I've been getting with coupons)
1 recipe of good seasons italian dressing*
15 oz(or so) sour cream
salt and pepper to taste
2 cans tuna or 1/2 lb cooked chicken

optional:
relish(I love!)
black olives
chopped cucumbers
chopped pickles

I boil the pasta, don't cook it too long. Drain and mix in a big bowl with the prepared good seasons dressing, tuna/chicken, and salt and pepper. Cool in the fridge. When it is completly cooled mix in the sour cream and any optional mix-ins. Enjoy!

It took some convincing to get my husband to try it as it's not your "normal" pasta salad, but once he did it is now something he requests often.

* The good seasons italian dressing is a packet mix of dressing. It is by the dips in the grocery store. Make it according to the directions on the packet.

I hope you enjoy!

Still working on it...

I am frustrated with myself right now for letting the summer rush by me. I haven't gotten much done as my plans for the summer have changed. My kids are taking swim lessons and then we have been going to their cousins to swim for the afternoon so I have not been making lunch and dinner has been very last minute as we have been getting home around 5 pm. I have decided that this saturday I will sit down and figure out this summer better so hopefully next week I will have the summer menu planned and ready to go.
