Mom's Best Macaroni Salad

“This is, by far, the best macaroni salad I've ever put into my mouth. It has a perfect blend of sweetness and tartness, and it is so pretty with all of the multi-colored veggies. Be ready for this to disappear before you put it on the table! I have six children, and it is all I can do to keep them from nibbling on it while I'm mixing it up!”

I would give this ten stars if i could! Recipe owner is right...best macaroni salad i ever put in my mouth. We cut sugar down bc of condensed milk and left out celery. So delicious. Made it twice in past week.

Great recipe! This was my first time making macaroni salad and everyone enjoyed itnni did however omit the sugar after reading some reviews. The sweetened condensed milk was sweet enough. I will definitely make again but probably cut it in 1/2.

I did not care for this. It was sweet but I guess sweet macaroni salad is not for me. I won't make this again. The sauce was more for coleslaw.

I made this Macaroni Salad and tasted it before I added the Condensed milk. It tasted great. I added the condensed milk and now its to sweet:( Next time I make this I will either leave out the 1/2 Cup sugar or the condensed milk.

I mostly hate macaroni salad. This recipe made me fall in love again. I took some of the other advice about reducing the amount of sugar. Still was great. I say play around with the ingredient amounts and make this Keeper Recipe!

I had to come back and leave this review before I cleaned my kitchen up. I almost passed up on this recipe even with all the good reviews because of the condensed milk addition but I am so glad that I chose to make it. Like many others, I do not think the sugar is necessary so I left it out. Upon tasting the salad for the first time, my palate was in shock then came that old familiar desire for another bite and another bite and yet another bite. It's so good you don't want to stop eating....this takes Macaroni Salad to another level.

I have made this MANY times. However the first time I followed the instructions to a "T" and the result was way to sweet, now when I make it I Omit the 1/2 cup sugar it still has a nice sweetness from the condense milk.

All I can say is Sweetened Condensed Milk; who would have thought. This is the best mac salad I have every had. Did reduce sugar to 1/4 cup. AWESOME! Prepared for teachers appreciation cook-out and got a call 1/2 an hour after function was over - to request recipe. Wow how impressive is that.
