My Simple Macaroni Salad
From justjakesmom 16 years ago
- 10 minutes to make
- Serves 8
This is just a simple cold pasta salad using ingredients I had in the pantry/fridge. It's a great side dish to salmon (which is what we had) or chicken, pork chops, or steak. It's your vegetable and starch in one dish - all you need. Read more You can add/subtract almost anything to this to fit your tastes. See less
Ingredients
- 8 oz. (dry) cooked salad macaroni (you can use whatever pasta you prefer) shopping list
- Chopped roma tomatoes (I only had 2, but 3 would be better) shopping list
- 1/3 cup chopped sweet onion (approx. - I don't measure, sorry) shopping list
- bunch of ciilantro (leaves only) chopped (about 1/3 cup) shopping list
- 1 small can sliced black olives (drained) shopping list
- 1 tsp minced garlic shopping list
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise (more/less) shopping list

- 1/2 tsp dill weed - approx. (or you can use dill relish, or if you prefer, sweet) shopping list
- salt and pepper to taste shopping list
- olive oil (I drizzle with just before serving because it seems to soak up the mayo while in the fridge, just to moisten, and stir) shopping list

- Add chopped tomatoes, onions, cilantro, olives, garlic to large bowl
- Add cooked macaroni (or pasta)
- Add mayo and mustard, stir in
