Ingredients

Servings
  • 8 oz. macaroni pasta half of a 1 pound box, uncooked
  • 3 large egg hard boiled
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 Tablespoons white vinegar
  • 2 Tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 1 Tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper ground
  • 1/2 cup celery thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup carrot grated
  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1/4 cup green onion sliced

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Use a colander or mesh stainer to drain the water from the pasta. Run cold water over the cooked pasta in the colander for 1 minute.
  2. Cut the hard boiled eggs in half. Pop the yolks out into a large bowl and chop the egg whites.
  3. Mash the yolks with the back of a fork. Add the mayo, milk, vinegar, mustard, sugar, salt, and pepper. Whisk until well combined.
  4. Add the cooked and cooled pasta, chopped egg whites, celery, carrots, cheese, and green onions to the bowl. Stir until well combined.
  5. Cover and refrigerate for at least two hours. As the pasta rests in the refrigerator, it will soak up the dressing.
  6. Stir well before serving.
