Cajun Macaroni Salad image

This is our family's favorite ever. It started originally with a Justin Wilson recipe that we've modified over the years. It has just the right amount of zing - not your mama's macaroni salad!

This salad is a great way to use up leftover macaroni. I always have some leftover from making macaroni and cheese and this is a great way to use it up.

I'm not a fan of spicy food, so I omitted the cayenne pepper from this recipe. It was still very flavorful.

I used Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise in this salad and it was still delicious. It made it a healthier option.
