This recipe is excellent!! Every time I make it, it is delicious and everyone loves it. I don't use beau monde seasoning, I just put a bunch of seasonings in there to taste, such as parsley, oregano, salt, pepper, etc. The cider vinegar really does the trick!

Very good macaroni salad!! I wasn't sure about the vinegar at first, but the whole family agreed that we will never have store-bought macaroni salad again! I did use another person's suggestion to use Miracle Whip instead of regular mayonnaise (and believe me, I am NOT a Miracle Whip fan at all), but I guess it was the right choice to make because it turned out great. And -- I had to look up what Beau Monde was before going to the store for the ingredients and was happy to find that our local Kroger carried the spice. I agree, it added a flavor that this salad shouldn't be without! Thanks for the recipe -- it's going into the keeper pile!

This was pretty good. But, I added a tablespoon of sugar to the mayonnaise and thought it was much better. I would recommend it - either that or using a salad dressing like Miracle Whip instead. I especially liked the cherry tomatoes in this recipe. Yum!

I have made this salad numerous times and it is wonderful! It has now become the standard request from my sister in law when I ask what I can bring to her house. Great salad!

I make this salad all the time! I found it about a year ago and I've made it on numerous occasions. Pot lucks, family meals, church socials, everyone loves it and I always bring home a clean bowl. I did find Beau Monde seasoning in the grocery and did not change the recipe at all except to double it.

This was just o.k. I made it once, and probably won't make it again. I thought I would have liked it better.

Great pasta salad. I don't like a strong vinegar taste so, I almost left it out. I'm glad I didn't because the salad was great! Kids loved it too! I'lldefinitely keep this one.

OK - I thought it was a bit bland, but still decent. I think I would have liked the cheese in chunks better. I found a bottle of Beau Monde that said it had onion powder, celery seed & salt, so I just used a mixture of that. But from all the comments about the Beau Monde "made it," I have to wonder if this was correct.

I made this for our neighborhood 4th of July party. I had to make a large amount so I simply adjusted the measurements accordingly...in other words I "eyeballed" alot of ingredients! I used frozen peas which I just simply thawed instead of bell pepper as suggested. This salad was the first to go! Everyone raved about it. Thanks Sally for a great and simple recipe. The cider vinegar and beau monde seasoning are the hidden secrets to this great salad!

Nothing special...some people liked it, others didn't like the cheddar taste in their salad. I'll look for another recipe.

I made this salad for a family birthday party and it was a HUGE hit! I added some grated carrots to the recipe and it was a great compliment to the other veggies. Also I cut the tomatoes into quarters and it added lots of colour to the salad. My mom said she will never be able to buy macaroni salad again from a store again.

I thought this was really good. I made it exactly as written and I think next time I would try cucumbers or peas instead of peppers, but that is personal preference. The dressing is very good and I think that's because of the Beau Monde. I made this salad as a side to barbeque ribs and it was an awesome summer Saturday night supper!

Tasty! The reason I picked it was because it is creamy and uses tomatoes. I made a few changes though. I don't know what Beau Seasoning is, so I just put in garlic powder and sweet relish. Instead of peppers I used peas. Also, I didn't have apple cider vinegar so I just used regular and it still tasted good!

I only tried this because it got such good reviews, sounded a little odd to me. However, I took it to a party and everyone loved it. I did make one change, I used a cajun spice mix rather than Beau Monde spice. I did use the same measurments and again it came out great. A potluck winner.
