Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pkg (7 oz) ring macaroni or ditalini
1 pkg (14 oz) coleslaw mix
2 medium onions,finely chopped
2 celery ribs, finely chopped
1 medium cucumber, finely choped
1 medium green pepper, finely chopped
1 can(s) (8 oz) whole water chestnuts, drained and choppped
DRESSING
1-1/2 c miracle whip light
1/3 c sugar
1/4 c cider vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Cook macaroni according to package directions; drain and rinse in cold water.
  • 2. Transfer to a large bowl; add the coleslaw mix, onions, celery, cucumber, green pepper and water chestnuts.
  • 3. In a small bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients. Pour over salad; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the cabbage and carrots. This will help the coleslaw absorb the dressing better and make it easier to eat.
  • If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a food processor fitted with the slicing blade. Just be careful not to over-process the vegetables, or they will become mushy.
  • For a creamier coleslaw, use mayonnaise instead of vinegar. You can also add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for extra richness.
  • If you like a tangy coleslaw, add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of apple cider vinegar. You can also add a spoonful of Dijon mustard for a bit of spice.
  • For a sweeter coleslaw, add a pinch of sugar or a drizzle of honey. You can also add some chopped fruit, such as apples, grapes, or pineapple.
  • For a crunchy coleslaw, add some chopped nuts or seeds. Walnuts, almonds, and sunflower seeds are all good options.
  • Serve coleslaw chilled for the best flavor. You can make it ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Macaroni coleslaw is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. It's also a great way to use up leftover cooked macaroni. With so many different variations, there's sure to be a macaroni coleslaw recipe that everyone will enjoy.
