I make Macaroni Salad a few times a year and I usually make quite a bit because we eat it with dinner for also for a snack. But if we are having people over for dinner, this is a great side to make the day before and have it already done, plus it's super easy to make.
You'll need:
1 box of Elbow Macaroni-cooked
1 can of Black Olives-slices
2 Dill Pickled- diced
1/4 cup of Pickle Juice from the Jar of Pickles
2 Stalks of Celery- diced
1 cup of Mayonnaise
salt and pepper to taste
What To Do:
After cooking the Macaroni, let cool completely. Mix all of the ingredients together, cover and let refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.
This is what mine looked like when it was done. You can add anything you like to yours. I sometimes will add diced boiled eggs to it or diced ham.
Do you like Macaroni Salad? Have you ever made your own?
I only make it about once a year, with yellow mustard in mine. My kids like pasta salad with Italian dressing better.
ReplyDeleteWe really like it so I make it several times a year.
DeleteI love noodle recipes, but sometimes the noodles don't come out quite as I would like. (lol) This recipe seems easy and looks delicious! Hugs...
ReplyDeleteYeah I have to keep checking the noodles as they cook so they get to the right doneness.
DeleteNever ate before, surprised?, at my shore
ReplyDeletelol I'm really not surprised.
DeleteI haven't made my own in ages- but this is a good reminder that it is fun, delicious and there is lots of room to add the ingredients in the fridge. :) Thanks!

I love this and potato salad.
DeleteI do make a macaroni salad but it's more italian based since I don't like mayo. It is great for a meal or a snacky treat :D
ReplyDeleteLooks easy--I've never made macaroni salad.
ReplyDeleteI've never made a macaroni salad, but I like the ingredients you put into yours. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI like macaroni salad, but somehow it doesn't taste good the next day when I make it at home, so I don't make it very often!
ReplyDeleteWe're more likely to mix whatever vegetables we have with hot pasta and instead of mayo we'll add olive oil or chilli oil as a dressing. It's a quick but healthy dinner.
