Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta - Boil the pasta in well salted water until al dente. After you drain the pasta, rinse it well with cold water.
  2. Finish the salad - Rinse the frozen peas under hot water and drain well. Add the cooked pasta and the rest of the ingredients to a large bowl and toss well.
  3. Chill and serve - Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

  • Store your leftover macaroni salad in an airtight container in the fridge. It will last 3-5 days. I don't recommend freezing this recipe! The pasta and mayo will break down as they thaw and give you a mushy mess.
