If salads are often very successful in the spring season, the winter cold can also be an opportunity to enjoy a rich salad with many different flavors and especially with a more solid consistency. 

Today I propose this recipe of a salad of tuna and macaronis that is a flavor festival to give us strength in this winter. It is perfect for a dinner that leaves us very satisfied or for a starter of food, before a roast or a fish.

How to make a salad of pasta and tuna with balsamic dressing

We will put to boil the pasta in a pot with water and salt for the time indicated to the manufacturer so that it is al dente, that is to say slightly firm. We drain and let cool. Peel and chop the cucumber that we place in a rather large bowl. We break into pepper that we chop equally. We add it to cucumber as well as corn kernels and broccoli florets. 

Drain the tuna in water, add it to the other ingredients of the bowl and stir. Finally we integrate the macaronis, season with salt and pepper and stir again. For the dressing, combine the mayonnaise with olive oil and balsamic in a bowl. We add it to the salad and refrigerate about 30 minutes.
