    Recipe Introduction


    Yield: 7 (1-1/2 cup) servings.

    I always use FF ingredients so it brought the points way down. I've also substituted canned chicken since DS2 doesn't eat fish.

    List of Ingredients




    1 pound farfelle (bow tie pasta)
    2 cups frozen peas
    1 12 oz can water-packed solid white tuna, drained and flaked
    2 cups chopped celery
    3/4 cup low-fat cottage cheese
    3/4 cup mayonnaise
    3/4 cup buttermilk
    2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill or 2 teaspoons dried
    1/4 teaspoon salt

    Recipe



    1. Cook pasta to desired doneness as directed on package, adding peas during last 3 minutes of cooking time. Drain; rinse with cold water to cool.

    2. Meanwhile, in blender container or food processor bowl with metal blade, combine cottage cheese, mayonnaise and buttermilk; blend until smooth. Stir in dill and salt. Set aside.

    3. In large bowl, combine cooked pasta, peas, tuna and celery. Pour dressing over salad; toss to coat. Cover; refrigerate at least 1 hour or until serving time.
