This is very tasty and we love the tang!  I used Italian Cavatappi macaroni, added halved cherry tomatoes for color and for herbs I used chopped basil and parsley! To the seasonings I added lemon pepper! This is now our favorite summer dish served room temp!

Great Salad.  I omitted the olives because they are not my favorite but still very good.  Will make again.

This is ok. Jazz it up to your own liking but I prefer regular tuna salad, will not make again.

Absolutely delicious! I was looking for a seafood salad that used celery and sour cream because I had some of both I needed to use. This has a complex flavor, but tastes very light because of the lemon dressing (I added just a bit of lemon zest as well). For the herbs, I used fresh parsley from our garden. This salad is so yummy that my husband and I both had second helpings!
