Diana at Forgetfulone requested this recipe and it ties in with Mere’s Scrumptious Sunday theme so here’s my bonus recipe of the week.
MACARONI SALAD
3 cups pasta of your choice
2 tablespoons salad oil of choice
4 tablespoons flavored vinegar of your choice
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1 bunch green onions, minced
3 sweet pickles, minced
1 medium carrot, minced
1/4 cup grated cheese of choice
3-5 tablespoons sour cream
sea salt and white pepper to taste
- Cook and drain pasta. Cool slightly.
- Whisk together oil, vinegar, salt, pepper and lemon juice.
- Toss together and chill.
- Meanwhile mince carrots, onions and pickles.
- Toss the vegetables, cheese and sour cream with the cooled pasta and chill again.
- Serve chilled!
I have also added small tidbits of ham or salami for a more filling salad. Hubby like it when I add chopped olives too.
I just love pasta salads! I love carbs to much-aaaaahhhhh! Thanks for sharing another summer salad with us! You Rock!
Oh, this sounds good! I like that there’s no mayo in it 🙂
Thank you!!!! I may have to cut this recipe down and make it just for me! Otherwise, I will have to wait until he’s cured of his “low-carb” theory or the twins get back from their grandma’s. This is going to be delicious, and again, thank you sooo much!
I wish I had the inclination to cook – but I do enjoy the rest of your blog!
I have something for you on mine.
