MAMA'S MACARONI SALAD



Mama's Macaroni Salad image

Easy and yummy cold pasta salad with a sweet dressing that reminds me of a poppy seed dressing. This has been handed down in my family for generations. Best made the day before to allow the pasta to absorb the dressing and the flavors blend. Hope you like it! PS This is also a great dressin for a sweet mayo slaw dressing.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces small shell pasta
1 bell pepper, diced
1 large tomatoes, diced
1 medium onion, diced
salt and pepper
1 cup mayonnaise, can use low fat
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Cook macaroni according to package directions using salted water.
  • Drain and rinse with cold water to remove the starchy water and cool the pasta quickly.
  • Shake the strained to remove as much water as possible from the pasta. You want it as dry as possible but not sticking together.
  • Place in large bowl and add the veggies. (This really is best and prettiest when the veggies are diced small.).
  • Mix all the dressing ingredients together- I usually put it in an empty jar with a tight fitting lid- like an old mayo jar- and shake-the kids like to do this part! (The dressing can be made ahead of time and stored in refrigerator).
  • Pour dressing over pasta and veggies and stir to thoroughly combine.
  • Refrigerate.
  • NOTE: Holidays: The red and green veggies look great at Christmastime!
  • BBQ's/Picnics: Place the bowl on top of a bowl filled with ice to keep it really cold.
  • You can use other veggies too- Great way to use up the garden goodies!

MOM'S BEST MACARONI SALAD



Mom's Best Macaroni Salad image

This is, by far, the best macaroni salad I've ever put into my mouth. It has a perfect blend of sweetness and tartness, and it is so pretty with all of the multi-colored veggies. Be ready for this to disappear before you put it on the table! I have six children, and it is all I can do to keep them from nibbling on it while I'm mixing it up!

SWEET MACARONI SALAD

A sweet out-of-the-ordinary dressing makes this macaroni salad special. My aunt gave me the recipe and it has become one of my favorites. I occasionally leave out the green pepper if I know that people don't like it, and it still tastes great. -Idalee Scholz, Cocoa Beach, Florida
