Tuna macaroni salad is a classic dish. Most people make it with their own preferences and tastes in mind, this is my version. I like plenty of tuna fish in my salad as well as dill pickle relish not sweet. I also like a mixture of mayonnaise and miracle whip. I prefer miracle whip over mayonnaise and that is what I use in my tuna salad, but for this salad I like the mixture of the two.
