  1. I grew up with really sweet macaroni salads at every picnic. I made this just as written. I used a green bell pepper, so mine was not quite as colorful, but it still was yummy. I started off with 1/4 cup of sugar, but then I ended up adding the full 1/2 cup. It was not too sweet at all. With the mustard and vinegar, it's actually pleasantly sweet and tangy. Thanx for posting!
     
  2. This taste so good, I halved the recipe and added an extra hardboiled egg (we like eggs), also i didn't have any celery seed, so i had to make this without it, it still turned out very good, but i will deffinitly buy some celery seed, so i have it the next time i make this. I'll be making this recipe alot, thank you for sharing this recipe homegirl.
     
  3. This is absolutely the BEST macaroni salad I've ever made! The mayo mixture is what makes it so delightful, that bit of sweetness. I made the recipe exactly as written. I made it the day before and of course it tasted best after sitting in the fridge "soaking up" the dressing. It was just perfect!
     
  4. It says not to use Miracle Whip but that is all I had so I cut the sugar and used the Miracle Whip. It was perfect.
