I used Diva's changes: decrease the mustard to 1/4 cup, add 4 Tbl apple cider vinegar with 2 Tbl sugar, and a tsp of mustard powder. My son who is a big mustard fan, still thought it was overpowering in the macaroni salad, so next time, I'm skipping the prepared mustard, and using a bit more mustard powder. Also, I halved the recipe, and it still yielded 8 generous side dish servings. Overall, this is really a great recipe that I'm happy to have on hand for my son's favorite side dish!

This is really good! I had some leftover crabmeat & shrimp from another recipe so I put that in. I also cut down the mustard to 1/4 cup & it turned out delicious. Thanks Kalley, this is a keeper, with or without the seafood.

This was pretty good but a little bland for my taste. It is very simple though. I added a little bit of boiled eggs to make it a little different taste. Very good!

I made this as written and even the kids loved it. I would rate it a 4.5. I still felt it was missing something and I couldn't pin point what it was. It was also a little dry for my tastes. I'll make it again and maybe doctor it a little to find what I thought was missing. We didn't think there was too much mustard but then again my family loves mustard. Thanks for sharing.

The ratio of mustard to mayo was too strong. I'd cut back on the mustard!

So similar to the way my mama taught me to make macaroni salad. Only change (for health and taste) is sub 1 cup NF plain yogurt for some of the mayo. I also season with some celery seed and tiny bit of cajun seasoning for just a bit of heat. Just like mama's!! Thank you!
