Creamy Macaroni Salad
Ingredients
  • 4 cups uncooked elbow macaroni
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2/3 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 1/4 cup grated carrot
  • 2 tablespoons chopped pimento peppers
Instructions
1
Acquire all necessary components.
2
Fill a substantial container with water that has been lightly seasoned with salt, then heat it until it reaches its boiling point. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water by stirring occasionally, allowing it to become tender yet still retain some firmness when bitten into, approximately 8 minutes. Rinse the cooked pasta under cold running water and discard any excess liquid.
3
Combine mayonnaise, sugar, vinegar, mustard, salt, pepper, and cooked elbow macaroni in a large serving vessel.
4
Integrate diced celery, onion, green pepper, carrot, and pimentos into the macaroni mixture.
5
Place the salad in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours prior to presentation, but ideally overnight.
