Recipe Summary Chicago Macaroni Salad
My family is from Chicago. This is one of my grandma's best recipes that's been handed down. Kids love it because of the cheese cubes! It's a great potluck dish because it has a lot of color! I use salad macaroni because of its small size.Ingredients | Chicago Pizza And Oven Grinder Reservation1 (8 ounce) package salad macaroni1 cup small broccoli florets¾ cup diced Cheddar cheese½ cup chopped green bell pepper½ cup dill pickle relish, with juice1 large dill pickle, chopped½ cup chopped celery½ cup sliced black olives½ cup sliced green olives (Optional)¼ cup chopped green onion2 tablespoons shredded carrot1 tablespoon chopped pimento peppers1 cup light mayonnaise¼ cup prepared yellow mustard1 teaspoon salt½ teaspoon white sugar¼ teaspoon black pepperDirectionsFill a pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the salad macaroni, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink, and rinse with cold water until chilled. Drain again to remove excess water.Place macaroni, broccoli, Cheddar cheese, green pepper, pickle relish, dill pickle, celery, black olives, green olives, green onion, carrot, and pimento in a salad bowl, and toss lightly to combine. In a bowl, whisk together the light mayonnaise, mustard, salt, sugar, and black pepper to make a smooth dressing; pour the dressing over the salad, and lightly mix to coat all ingredients with dressing. Refrigerate at least 4 hours to blend flavors before serving.Info | Chicago Pizza And Oven Grinder Reservationprep: 30 mins cook: 10 mins additional: 4 hrs total: 4 hrs 40 mins Servings: 10 Yield: 10 servings
