I made this for Thanksgiving 2002 and my family enjoyed it very much. I believe this may be the first one I have made myself but have eaten many. It was good but takes a while (at least for me) to cut all the stuff, etc.

I used 1/2 cup mayo and 1/2 cup sour cream, and the dressing was great. I didn't add the carrots but added fresh diced tomatoes before serving. Used lemon juice in place of pickle juice for a bit of tartness. Nice versatile recipe, Thanks!

Green olives are a good twist. I skipped the onions and came out with a yummy salad. Different than the normal high mayonnaise type. Good for getting a lot of veggies in.

I found this recipe to be extremely lacking in taste. Will not try again.

This is a very good recipe. Multiplied it many times and made it for my daughter's wedding reception, and I received many compliments. My only question would be about the number of servings. This recipe makes between 13 and 14 cups of salad. Unless you are feeding Paul Bunyan and his brothers, I think that's a lot more than six servings. Maybe it 's supposed to say 16?

TERRIFIC, EASY recipe. Basic and very TASTY!!!! I used red pepper instead of green bell because it agrees with me more. But everything else A #1. Thanks for having this on the web. I even put tuna in it the second day - and had a whole new dish!!!

i used all of the celery seed called for and loved it. i increased the olives the second time around. i think this tastes best on the second day -- once thoroughly chilled. will use this again and again.

This is the best recipe I found for macaroni salad. My hubby even said it's as good as his mother's! :) It makes a lot of food. I used sweet relish instead of pickles & I used pimentos instead of olives...It turned out great! Thanks!

I found this to be delicious. I only used one tablespoon of celery seed though because it's not my favorite spice. Plan ahead because there is a lot of chopping involved in this recipe, BUT worth it.
