EASY SWEET AND TANGY MACARONI SALAD



Easy Sweet and Tangy Macaroni Salad image

My family doesn't like macaroni salad with a lot of mayonnaise. I threw together this recipe one day when I couldn't find one I liked online. It was a huge hit with everyone helping themselves to seconds. I think this recipe would also be great with some hard boiled egg added. You could also try different vegetables such as celery or green pepper according to your taste. The result is a sweet and tangy, not overly creamy or mayonnaise tasting macaroni salad. Great with grilled food!

TANGY SHRIMP MACARONI SALAD



Tangy Shrimp Macaroni Salad image

Another recipe from the 1980 version of the Grace Evangelical Congregational Church cookbook from Muir, Pennsylvania that was given to me by my Nana when I became an adult. This recipe was submitted to the cookbook by Mrs. Alice (Podgie) Meyer. She didn't specify the number of servings this recipe makes. So, I am using guesswork. Chill time is not included in cooking time.

TANGY MACARONI SALAD



Tangy Macaroni Salad image

I seldom enjoy macaroni salad. All those I've eaten are either to sticky or too bland, or both. I think macaroni salad, and potato salad as well, should help moisten your mouth when eating a sandwich, so I like mine "loose". At a church potluck, the minister complimented me, saying this is the only macaroni salad she liked....
