Your New Party Favorite – Simple Old-Fashioned Mac Salad

5 easy salad recipes macaroni salad

This tasty mac salad makes the perfect side dish to any of your BBQ entrees, and I have been known to eat this for lunch on its own!

You can spice it up with your favorite seasonings, if you’d like to, but I highly recommend you give the recipe a try as is, first. Choose your favorite kind of pasta for this, and make sure you keep the salad in the refrigerator until ready to serve. “How much veggies should I add”, you ask – well, as much as you want to! I don’t think the ratio is ever exactly the same when I’m making this, but it always turns out amazing!
