Amish Macaroni Salad

Amish Macaroni Salad



NOTE: It does make a lot of salad, so if you wanted a smaller amount, it halves easily.



SALAD

1 lb macaroni (or small shells)

1/2 cup finely chopped celery

1/2 cup finely grated carrots

1/4 cup finely chopped onions (more if desired)

1/4 cup chopped green peppers (optional, see note at end)

6 hard-boiled eggs (reserve 1 to slice for garnish, and chop the remaining 5)

paprika, for garnish



DRESSING

2 cups Miracle Whip

1/4 cup vinegar

3/4 cup sugar

2 tablespoons prepared mustard



Cook macaroni as directed on package; Drain& cool.

In a bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients so they are well-combined and smooth.

In a large bowl, gently combine the macaroni, celery, carrots, onions, and remaining eggs.

Fold the dressing gently into the macaroni salad mixture.

Place into your serving bowl and garnish with the reserved slice egg and paprika.

Let sit overnight for the best results.
