This delicious macaroni salad is so refreshing. My husband and I came up with it using ingredients we prefer and we make this regularly during the summer to go with lunches or as a meal on a really hot day. Easy recipe to modify according to your own preferences. Get creative and enjoy!

[email protected]This recipe is a fail. The macaroni was overcooked and the dressing was too sweet. I definitely won't be making this again.

[email protected]This recipe seems a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll omit the pineapple and add some chopped celery instead.

[email protected]This salad is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. I like to use a rotisserie chicken instead of ham for a healthier version.

[email protected]I'm not a huge fan of pineapple in savory dishes, but I decided to give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The pineapple adds a nice sweetness that balances out the salty ham. Will definitely make this again.
