This refreshing salad is always well received, especially in summer. My mother said the recipe just evolved , because she kept adding ingredients until it tasted right. It really does have great flavor! Ingredients:
3 cups uncooked elbow macaroni (about 10 ounces) |
6 ounces peeled and deveined cooked shrimp, rinsed and drained |
1 can (6 ounces) crabmeat, drained and flaked |
2 cups sliced celery |
1/2 small onion, finely chopped |
3 to 4 hard-cooked eggs, coarsely chopped |
1 cup mayonnaise |
3 tablespoons sweet pickle relish or finely chopped sweet pickles |
1 tablespoon prepared mustard |
1 tablespoon vinegar |
1 teaspoon paprika |
salt and pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Cook macaroni in boiling salted water until tender; drain and cool. In a large bowl, combine macaroni, shrimp, crabmeat, celery, onion and eggs; set aside. In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, pickle relish, mustard, vinegar and paprika. Add to macaroni mixture; toss lightly. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and chill. Yield: 8 servings.
