My sister's secret to great macaroni salad is .......... Kraft Cole Slaw Dressing! Mix with macaroni with chopped egg, finely sliced celery, a little mustard and sweet relish. Salt and pepper to taste. My favourite is to add drained and flaked salmon to the mix. |
QuiltE, that sounds so good! I do same only with real mayo instead of dressing. Will try yours next time with salmon.....

My MIL's Shrimp & Macaroni Salad
2 cans of tiny shrimp - any brand will do - for some reason fresh bay shrimp does not 1 package of salad macaroni - cooked, rinsed and cooled 1 cup of chopped pickles - we use Kosher dill pickles 1 cup of chopped celery 1 cup of chopped green onions Mixed together with mayonnaise - we use a little over a cup - depends on how you like it covered then garlic salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with sliced hard boiled eggs and paprika sprinkled on top. It is always a hit. |

Another nice twist to a macaroni salad is to add some grated parmesan. |
I cook one box of macaroni in salty water. The water is suppose to be as salty as the ocean. Chop 1/2 onion, three celery sticks, three or four sweet pickles and two chopped hard boiled eggs. Mix with the macaroni. For the dressing
1 1/4 cup mayo, 2 tablespoons vinegar, 1 tablespoon sweet pickle juice, 1 teaspoon dry mustard, a sprinkle of paprika, salt and pepper. Mix with the macaroni and cool. It's better if it sits for a while. Adjust spices before serving. I also like to add albacore tuna. |
I like 2 cups cook macaroni, 1 can of stawed tomatos, and 1/4 cup sugar {more or less as you all} mix together. best of set a few hours.
