Recipe for Macaroni Salad, Traditional and Creamy

Recipe for Macaroni Salad

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups uncooked elbow macaroni
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
  • 2/3 cup white sugar
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped carrot

    Directions:

    Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni, and cook until tender, about 8 minutes. Rinse under cold water and drain.

    In a large bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, mustard, salt and pepper. Stir in the onion, celery, green pepper, carrot, and macaroni. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving, but preferably overnight.

    This is a very versatile recipe. You can use miracle whip instead of mayo, apple cider vinegar instead of white and half the sugar called for if you want it less sweet. White onions instead of red , and a chopped boiled egg if you like.

    Chopped carrots,celery and green pepper.
