"Recipes for macaroni salad started appearing in the early 20th century. The famous restaurant, Delmonico's, offered a version heavy with mustard on it's menu as early as 1901. Now for most Americans, it is a mayonnaise dressed side dish, popular for picnics."

Very nice macaroni salad! I chopped the carrot in the food processor. I enjoyed the carrot and halved the recipe. Thanks! Made for My 3 Chefs event. :)
