This is my Mom's recipe, she was famous for this. Might not be exactly what you were looking for, but this is pretty good!





Macaroni Salad:


6 cups cooked medium size shell macaroni


5 hard boiled eggs, diced


1 cup canned peas


1 cup diced celery


1 cup diced onions


1/4 cup sweet pickle relish





Sauce:


2 cups miracle whip


2 tbs yellow mustard


1 - 2 tbs white vinegar


2 - 4 tbs milk


1 tbs black pepper


2 tsp kosher salt





Cook macaroni according to package directions, al le dente. Drain and chill is ice water to stop cooking.





Mix the sauce. In a large mixing bowl, add macaroni, veggies and pour salad dressing over macaroni. You want a creamy texture with a nice tangy flavor. Add additional miracle whip, milk and vinegar if needed.

super easy.....





cook your macoroni ( 1 box) shock it with cold water when its done so it does keep cooking and get mushy





add chopped boiled eggs ( about 4)


sweet relish (small jar all or 1/2)


onion chopped ( I use onion salt I don't like onions)


celery or celery salt (dash)


then 1/2 cup miracle whip


small jar of marzeti slaw dressing.......( secret ingredient) :0)





mix all together add alittle sugar to taste......





the slaw dressing makes it creamy and it won't dry out if you are taking it some place then add a little more slaw dressing before you serve it so it stays creamy not dry ....
I boil macaroni to done and drain. While still warm, mix in enough mayo to make it moist but not too runny, and stir in some grated onion, chopped green (and black) olives, and finely diced celery and carrot. At this point, you can stop and chill to help the flavors meld. However, I like to add finely diced turnip and zucchini and sometimes I add a meat, like chicken.





I hope this helps!
Make Macaroni according to the package directions. Cool under cold running water.





In the meantime chop celery, onions, green olives, and red pepper.





Mix together in a bowl with Mayonnaise or Miracle Whip. Salt and Pepper, few dashes of Worchestshire Sauce, and mix well.





You could add Canned Chicken or Tuna if you would like as well.
