This macaroni salad is a great make-ahead dish. I made it the night before my party, and it was even better the next day. The flavors had a chance to meld together, and the salad was even more creamy and delicious.

I was a bit skeptical about the celery and onion in this recipe, but I'm so glad I didn't leave them out. They add a nice crunch and flavor to the salad. I'll definitely be making this recipe again.
