TUNA TARRAGON SALAD (SWEET TOMATOES
This is the exact recipe for Sweet Tomatoes/Soup Plantation's Salad. I go there as often as possible for this salad. Finally learned how to make it myself. Word to the wise, DO NOT TASTE IT BEFORE THE 8 HOURS OR IT WON'T TASTE RIGHT. Trust me, its worth the wait!

Steps:
- Set a large pot of water to boil over high heat. Once boiling, add shell pasta. Boil, stirring occasionally, until pasta is cooked through and al dente, about 10 minutes. Using a small strainer, scoop out the cooked pasta and pour into a large mixing bowl, leaving the water in the pot. Add the spinach fettuccine and boil until cooked through and al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain pasta into a colander in the sink. Add fettuccine to the same mixing bowl. Set aside to cool.
- In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, pickle juice, tarragon, salt and pepper. Whisk well to combine. Pour over cooled pasta. Add diced pickles, celery, celery leaves and tuna, being sure to break up the tuna into smaller pieces.
- Gently toss the pasta with a large spoon, being sure all the pasta is coated in the dressing. Serve immediately or chill.

I find this tastes better the next day after the flavors have set in. It's good with a fresh baguette or pita bread.

TUNA TARRAGON PASTA SALAD
My husband and I love the unique flavor of the tuna pasta salad at our local Sweet Tomatoes restaurant. The natural sweetness from the tarragon blends beautifully with the mild tuna. I developed this recipe at home and it comes really close to real thing...maybe even surpassing it. The restaurant chain uses a mixed pasta consisting of broken spinach fettucini, broken regular fettucini and sea shells, but I don't usually keep all those pastas on-hand. I also took the liberty of adding peas (I just love peas and tuna together).

TARRAGON TUNA SALAD
It's surprising how a few herbs can brighten up tuna salad. Made with reduced-fat mayonnaise, this version gets its zip from mustard. It makes a terrific light lunch or Sunday brunch dish. -Billie Moss, Walnut Creek, California
