I can not get enough of this salad!! I did make a few changes...I omitted the chicken since I was preparing this to accompany cheeseburgers and hot dogs. I made the directions to serve 16 so the recipe asked for 4 packages of ranch mix. This made me a little nervous so I added only two at first. I changed the green olives to sliced black olives and added sliced carrots. I made the salad the night before and when I checked it in the morning the dressing was slightly thick and I thought it could handle one more package of ranch. I whisked the ranch into 1/2 of milk and this did the trick. Everyone at the BBQ loved it and there was enough for leftovers which made me happy!! I will make this again with my changes as well as main dish and add the chicken (not canned though) to see how it is that way. Thank you for the great recipe!!!

WOW!This is an excellent macaroni salad recipe that is just out of this world it is that good! I took this to a potluck at my child's school and EVERYBODY was scraping the bowl clean and asking for more,not kidding! Even the pickiest of kids raved about how good this chicken macaroni salad was! Thank you for sharing this,because we LOVE this recipe! ;-)

I thought this was a pretty good recipe, but I didn't like the canned chicken AT ALL. People at the BBQ I took it to all thought it was tuna with the smell and consistency. I'll make this again, but with real chicken.

Excellent Flavor! I loved the ranch! I used miracle whip instead of mayo and I added a little extra because it got a little dry the longer it sat. I will be making this again!

Yummy recipe! I used 1/2 the celery because my hubby isn't a big celery fan, and I opted for baked chunks of chicken instead of the canned.I had him try it cold - and then he heated it up in the microwave just to see how it was warmed. He gave it a thumbs up either way. I will definately make it again! I'm going to add pimentos for a little more color next time, and I plan on trying it with tuna instead of chicken sometime. A fabulous - what can I add to this - recipe!

I made a few changes but really liked this salad. I used small shells instead of elbow macaroni. I also added a couple of chopped green onions. Used leftover chopped turkey instead of canned chicken. Because I found it a little too salty initially I increased the turkey to 2+ cups and added 2 diced hard-boiled eggs and that seemed to take care of it. Served it on a bed of lettuce with cherry tomatoes as a garnish. Very tasty!

This was a very tasty variation of macaroni salad. I didn't change anything and it came out great! Thanks for a great recipe.
