Cajun Macaroni Salad image

A spicy Cajun twist on classic macaroni salad, this Creole pasta salad is perfect for summer BBQ's and potlucks.

Provided by Kelly Wildenhaus

Categories     Side Dish

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound elbow macaroni
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ sweet onion, minced (like Vidalia)
4 ribs celery, small dice
2 hard boiled eggs, small dice
2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning (preferably no salt blend)
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon freshly, cracked black pepper
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper, OPTIONAL (if you want a little more heat!)
1½ cups good quality mayonnaise (I like Duke's Mayo for this, it's a Southern thing!)
3 tablespoons Creole mustard (can use any whole grain mustard, or yellow mustard)
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
½ lemon, juiced
1 teaspoon hot sauce (preferably Louisiana-style like Crystal or Tabasco)
Kosher salt and freshly, cracked black pepper
Chopped fresh parsley, sliced hard boiled egg, for garnish. (Totally optional but it looks pretty!)

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of water to boil and season generously with salt. Cook macaroni according to package instructions. Drain, rinse with cold water, repeat and transfer to large bowl. Toss with olive oil and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, combine remaining ingredients in another bowl. Use a whisk to combine all remaining ingredients except celery, onion and egg. Add 2 teaspoons salt and 2 tablespoons of water to start, up to ¼ cup water. When combined, stir in celery, onion and egg. The sauce should be on the thinner side, not too thick.
  • Taste sauce for seasoning and adjust salt, pepper and hot sauce to taste. Add to cooked elbows and toss to combine. Serve immediately with fresh parsley and/or hard boiled egg slices, or refrigerate until serving, adding a little water to loosen up and make shiny again if needed.
