Description
Delicious old fashioned Macaroni Salad recipe. Perfect for pot lucks, picnics, cookouts!
Ingredients
16 ounces elbow macaroni (about 1-3/4 cups)
1–1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
2 Tbsp. yellow mustard
4 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
1/2 cup thinly sliced celery
1/2 cup chopped green or red bell pepper
1/4 cup chopped onion
2 hard boiled eggs, chopped
1 Tbsp Celery Seed
Instructions
Boil elbow macaroni according to package directions.
When cooked, drain (do not rinse), and put on a large tray until cooled. This not only helps cool the macaroni faster, it dries it out a little, which helps the dressing stick much better.
Meanwhile, mix the dressing components. Mix mayonnaise, white vinegar, yellow mustard, sugar, salt and ground black pepper.
Cut celery, onions and peppers.
Add macaroni, vegetables and eggs.
Mix dressing in.
Refrigerate for at least 6 hours to meld the flavors and completely chill.
