I found the salad to be a bit bland. I would add more spices next time, like chili powder or cumin.

This salad is a little too sweet for my taste. I would probably omit the pineapple next time.

I've never had macaroni salad with pineapple before, but it was a nice surprise. It added a bit of sweetness and acidity that really balanced out the other flavors.

I'm not a huge fan of mayonnaise, so I used Greek yogurt instead. It was still delicious!

This salad is a great way to use up leftover pasta. I usually have some leftover spaghetti or penne, and this is a great way to use it up.

I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The sweetness of the pineapple, the crunch of the celery and bell pepper, and the creaminess of the mayonnaise all come together perfectly.
