Pickled Tuna Macaroni Salad : How to Make Magic With Pickles

I discovered through the guess and check method that it is essential to let this chill out in the fridge for at least an hour… minimum. I would give it a bit longer than that. The more time that you allow it to sit, the better it gets, at least in my opinion. You might want to whip up some extra dressing though because the longer it sits, the drier it gets, and you’re going to want to add some more before serving it. Check out what they are saying about this recipe over at Spend with Pennies:
