Macaroni Salad


Macaroni Salad

Very basic and simple, but it's what our family likes!

Makes 10 servings, I weighed out the entire bowl and divided by 10 to get the serving size! Blue, Green and Purple – 5 points

  • 8 oz elbow macaroni, uncooked
  • 1 cup light mayonaisse
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped small
  • 1/2 small onion, chopped small
  • salt and pepper to taste

  1. Cook macaroni according to directions. Let cool.

  2. In a large bowl, mix macaroni (may have to wet it with cool water while its in the strainer after it cools to "unstick" it) , 3/4 cup of mayo, celery, onion, salt and pepper. Reserve 1/4 cup of mayo to mix in right before serving.

  3. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving. Mix in remaining 1/4 cup of mayo right before serving. Will keep in fridge for 5 days.
