GRANDMA'S MACARONI SALAD



Grandma's Macaroni Salad image

A sweet macaroni salad just like Grandma used to make. The dressing is a good basic macaroni salad dressing that you can use with your own macaroni salad recipe. You must refrigerate for at least 4 hours for all of the flavors to blend together.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups elbow macaroni
¼ cup sweet relish
½ cup onion, finely chopped
½ cup finely chopped green bell pepper

2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon dried dill weed
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well; rinse with cold water and drain again.

  • Whisk creamy salad dressing into reserved relish juice. Mix in sour cream, milk, sugar, dill, salt, and pepper. Fold gently into the macaroni mixture. Refrigerate to let flavors blend, 4 to 24 hours.

MOM'S MACARONI SALAD



Mom's Macaroni Salad image

My mom's macaroni salad recipe. I leave out the bell peppers because Hubby doesn't care for them, and I chop the onions very fine because I don't like biting into big pieces. I also recommend making extra dressing to add later. The macaroni will absorb the moisture as it sets, which could make the salad seem too dry.
