I used chameleon in the name because this salad is so changeable. I often add ham to make this a main dish. Take out the peas and olives and add tomatoes for a wonderful BLT taste. Substitute Italian Salad dressing for the Miracle Whip. The possibilities are endless. Cook time is chill time.
Ingredients:
2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni or 2 cups other pastas
8 slices bacon
4 tablespoons minced onions (i just give it a good sprinkle of dehydrated onion instead)
4 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 cup peas, can be frozen
1 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup slilced green olives
1 cup miracle whip or 1 cup mayonnaise, whatever you like
Directions:
1. Cook and drain macaroni.
2. Fry and crumble bacon.
3. Stir all ingredients together.
4. Chill.
5. May need to add a little salad dressing before serving depending on how you like it.
