A friend of mine made this at a bbq and it surprised me with how much the cheese whiz added. It was the one ingredient I hadn't expected!

Time 20m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups macaroni
1 cup mayonnaise (not miracle whip)
2 (6 ounce) cans tuna
1/4 cup green onion, diced
1/4 cup celery, diced
3 -4 tablespoons Cheese Whiz (I used the light version)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Cook the macaroni.
  • Add the chopped green onion and celery along with the tuna into a bowl. Break up the tuna so it is in small pieces.
  • When the macaroni is finished, add it into the bowl.
  • While the pasta is still warm, add the cheese whiz and mayonnaise into the bowl and mix well until it is all combined.
  • Chill for at least 2 hours but overnight would be best and enjoy.
