Gram’s Macaroni Salad

I love all kinds of pasta salads especially this time of year. They are usually easy to make and that’s what I’m all about. This recipe has been in our family for years. Every holiday, barbecue or any type of party this is always requested.

Grams Macaroni Salad

This recipe is very easy to adjust to make more or less. I always make a lot so my boys can take some home and the leftovers are great. The name is in honor of my mom, the grand kids called her grams.

Instructions

1. Cook pasta as directed on package and let cool. While the pasta is cooking chop any ingredients that need cut to save time. After pasta is cooled add all ingredients and stir. If it seems dry and more miracle whip this is where you want to adjust any of the other ingredients for example if you want more cheese ect. I try to make it the day before since the noodles do soak up the miracle whip. You can also and more if needed the next day. This recipe is easy to make and can be adjusted to taste.

   
2. I buy this ham since it is all ready cut up, it makes it even faster.
