Anyone have a great recipe for macaroni salad? I've never made it, want to, but don't really want to pull some random recipe off of the Internet!
Thanks!

Guess I should have spell checked the other post...LOL
1. go to Klein's
2. order a pound of the macaroni salad
3. pick up a snickers bar on the way out
I haven't made this one, but this recipe seems pretty close to one I'd choose, aiming for that Lancaster County flavor.
The only change I'd make: cut the sugar in half and serve the next day.

Ha, I like Kristin's version. :)
My mom's recipe is pretty simple:
1 lb cooked macaroni noodles
1 chopped onion
chopped celery (same amount as onion)
1 jar diced pimentos
Italian seasoning
lotsa Miracle Whip
No real amounts, but it's tasty!
