\"Macaroni<\/a>Growing up, in the summer we always had several foods on rotation; hot dogs, hamburgers, watermelon, grapes, potato salad, and always macaroni salad. Which was one of my fave dishes – simple, easy to make, and can be a side or a lunch.<\/p>\n

\"Macaroni<\/a><\/p>\n

The salad is simple: elbow macaroni, celery, tuna, mayo, mustard, and salt and pepper. Feel free to take liberties with it on amounts, but this is how I make it:<\/p>\n

1 pound elbow macaroni<\/strong>
\n2 cans tuna<\/strong>
\n4-6 stalks celery<\/strong> (about what you see in the photo)
\n2-4 tablespoons mayo<\/strong> (depending on how much you like mayo)
\n2-4 tablespoons mustard<\/strong>
\ns\/p<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Macaroni<\/a><\/p>\n

So just in case you’re wondering, if I ever offer to make macaroni salad, this is what I am bringing. This is macaroni salad. I boil some pasta, I cool it. I chop some celery, I add it all together, and I salt\/pepper it. Then I bring it to your cookout, and everyone loves it because it is simply the best thing ever.<\/p>\n

\"Macaroni<\/a><\/p>\n

What is your go-to macaroni salad? Is it a caprese, or something with meat, or balsamic? I’m curious to see what everyone else grew up with!<\/p>\n

Did you guys enjoy Cold Salad Week? Are there other weeks you’d like us to do for you? Do I sense the audience wanting a chocolate week, perhaps?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
