Method

Bring two medium pots of water to a boil with a tablespoon of salt in each pot. After water starts to boil, add noodles to one pot and eggs to other pot. Reduce heat and cook both 15-20 minutes. Check noodles while cooking, being careful not to overcook. In a large glass bowl, combine tuna, relish, salad dressing, mustard and sugar. Once noodles and eggs are done, remove from heat and drain. Remove shells from eggs, rinse and chop large dice and add to mixture. Rinse noodles and add to bowl, then mix with a large spoon. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.

 

Notes: Be sure not to overcook noodles, or it will ruin the entire dish.

 

Number of Servings: 10-15
