A favorite of the boys I cook for once a week. It takes me back to the good ol' days where you could actually find good, homemade macaroni salad at your sandwich shop.
Ingredients:
1 lb elbow macaroni (can substitute orrechiette pasta)
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 red bell pepper, seeded and small diced
1 (3 7/8 ounce) can sliced black olives
4 ounces medium cheddar, cubed 1/4-inch
Directions:
1. Cook pasta al' dente, according to directions. Rinse with cold water and drain very well.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, sugar, salt and pepper.
3. Add bell pepper, olives and cheese, tossing well with dressing to coat well.
4. Serve chilled-best after it's had a chance to meld, at least 2-3 hours.
