Pasta Toss
From Dorothy McNett's Recipe book at www.dorothymcnett.com.
1 pound Orecchiette pasta
salt
olive oil
1 can (6-7 oz.) best quality tuna or smoked salmon
2-3 ribs celery, sliced
1-2 oranges, sliced
1-2 teaspoons finely grated onion
1/2 cup or so good quality salad dressing
snipped green onions or chives, if desired
Bring water to boil in a 6-8 quart pasta cooker. When rapidly boiling, add about 1 tablespoon sea salt and a drizzle of olive oil. Bring back to the boil. When boiling again, add the pasta and bring back to a boil, and then start timing, using the suggested time on the package of pasta. When done, lift the pasta basket and let it drain back into the pot of water. Dump the pasta into a beautiful bowl, and toss in the remaining ingredients. Garnish and serve. Also good cold.
