This is what my grandma would call a "dump" dish. While I suggest amounts on the ingredients, it's really a recipe that screams for experimentation! I never measure--just prep and dump! Be careful though; the more you put in, the greater your chances of having to transfer to a bigger bowl.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pkg (1 lb) medium shell macaroni
1/2 c onion (your choice: red, green yellow, or white)
2-3 stalk(s) celery, cut up
1 pkg grape tomatoes, halved
mayonnaise or miracle whip to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Cook macaroni per package directions; drain and rinse under cold water when done. (I like my macaroni a bit firm for this.) Set aside in large bowl.
  • 2. Prep veggies; stir into macaroni.
  • 3. Spoon in mayonnaise or Miracle Whip (or a mix of both) to taste and mix well. Sprinkle parsley flakes on top as garnish, if desired. Refrigerate before serving to allow flavors to blend.

I found the instructions for this salad to be a bit confusing. I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my salad didn't turn out as well as I had hoped.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a more savory dressing.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some leftover peas, carrots, and celery, and this salad was the perfect way to use them up.
