Notes
- Recipe Tips.
- Make ahead of time. Macaroni salad can be made 24 hours ahead of time. Mix most of the dressing in before storing it in an airtight container in the refrigerator, but reserve a little dressing to add right before serving to freshen up the salad in case it is a little dry.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days.
- This recipe makes enough for a large gathering. Go ahead and halve the recipe to serve closer to 8 people.
- Try a different pasta. Anything that is bite-sized and has grooves works well, such as salad shells, wagon wheels, ditalini, or bow ties
