My mother always made a macaroni salad that tasted like this. She got the recipe from her Danish grandmother. I made the recipe as called for, but doubled the dressing. I also added cheddar cheese instead of American. I wasn't going to put in the eggs, but am so glad that I did! A nice touch. I will make Macaroni Salad from this recipe from now on!

Very good recipe but, as other reviewers have noted, on the dry side. I made about 30% more dressing than called for and after a couple of hours in the fridge, it has soaked it all in. Next time, I'll make a double batch of the dressing and keep half on the side for the next day. Dressing is very good with some crushed garlic added in.

Maybe I'm used to a different style of pasta salad but this was not good for me at all.

This Recipe was great. I've been using the same one for a long time because I couldn't find another good one but this one sure fit the bill. I added some Cucumbers and Celery for an extra crunch. Finally I can switch out my salad recipes every now and then.

Many thanks for this wonderful recipe. We have it A LOT during the summer with our many bbq's and we never tire of it. Sometimes, I just like having it for lunch. I send it with friends to take on vacation and I have had many requests for the recipe. I send them here to All Recipes to look you up. What else do you have to share? Revision...STILL the best and most requested salad I make (2008).

I'm dumping my old recipe for this one! Macaroni salad is typically bland but this one is tasty and can easily be spiced with add-ins like diced salami and sharp cheese. This one's a keeper and I'm looking forward to taking it to the next function.

I changed this up a little to our likes. I omitted the pimento peppers, bell pepper and cheese. I added in peas, sliced olives sour cream and a little more mayo. It's a good basic macaroni salad!

This really didn't do much for me. I didn't dislike it, but it just... well, just nothing too exciting.

Delicious! The right combo of sweet and sour, crunchy and creamy. It was going, going, gone at the bbq I brought it to. Thanks for the recipe, Jim!

This was pretty good! Not the kind of macaroni salad that I am used to, but good nonetheless. I felt like it was missing something... maybe some garlic powder?

Excellent salad, Jim! Due to personal preferences, I eliminated the cheese and green peppers. For a different flavor try adding 2t horseradish, 2t Dijon mustard and increasing the vinegar a bit. I always add 1/2cup lite sour cream to the light mayo. The next day it was a little dry, like all pasta salads are. Just add a touch of milk.

I have used this recipe ever since it was put on the www site. It is the BEST. I add 2 tablespoons of Concord cole slaw dressing. It is a powder form. It makes the flavor more intense. I also used more peppers by putting in green, red and orange. I also used small chunks of cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese. I would recommend this to anyone. You can do so many things to vary it.
