A huge hit! I added a shredded carrot for color, as well as some freshly ground pepper to the cream mixture for a little extra zing. A definite make again salad!

This is a nice twist on macaroni salad.

I made this using low fat sour cream and mayo. At first I thought the amount of veggies used would overwhelm the amount of pasta, but was pleasantly surprised by the end result. Will definitely make again!!

We were looking for a new (and different) macaroni salad to serve at our wedding party. This is excellent! There were no leftovers. Everyone liked it. This salad will be regular our barbecues.

I loved this! I cut the cheese in small cubes (finger nail size) and used a dill pickle instead of sweet (don't like) then I sprinkled paprika over the top. Next time I will use Miracle Whip instead of the mayo for the "zing" that it was missing and add some pepper too. Would be good with tuna. Thanks Karena, I will make this again.

This was a pretty good macaroni salad. I left out the cheese and added carrots, salt, and a little pepper. My company seemed to enjoy it very well.

Pretty good. I did use miracle whip instead of mayo, omitted the peas, and used shredded cheddar cheese. Also, I took a previous reviewer's advice and added a jar of diced pimetos for color. Not much different than other pasta salads I've had before but still pretty good.

This was a GOOD recipe but I changed a few things to make it EXCELLENT. First I doubled the Basic Recipe, then I added 1 C. Monterey Jack w/Jalapenos Cheese, 1/2 C. Purple Onion, 1 Jar Sliced Black Olives, 1 Jar Diced Pimento Peppers, 4 T. Fresh Chopped Cilantro. Everyone loved it at my BBQ and gave the recipe out to almost everyone . THANKS

This recipe was great! I made this for a camping trip the night before, and having it set overnight really brought out the flavors. I will make this anytime. Very easy!

This was tasty. I would rather use red or yellow pepper for better color.

Finally!! A pasta salad that I like. My family and grandchildren loved it, too. I also tried it with some leftover Macaroni and Cheese [of the popular variety] and it was also delicious, I just omitted the cubed cheese. It's a good way to use it up without eating it as "leftovers".

I used shredded cheddar, and omitted the celery (I didn't have any on hand, so I added more onion), and carried a bowl of this in a car for three hours, and it still tasted pretty good! It was a hit at a family party.

I fixed this recipe for my 4th of July picnic, and everyone just loved it. I did use shredded cheddar instead of cubed cheddar, however. This recipe is definately a keeper!

This was a great little recipe to whip up. I am not an onion fan and found the onions overpowered the salad but I'll just leave them out next time. My husband didn't mind the onions at all. My toddler ate it with full gusto!
