I didn't care for this at all. Normally I love macaroni salad, but this wasn't a winner for me.

I was expecting more flavor given the ingredients.

Sorry, but I have to agree with those who have said this was bland, and also dry. The only thing I changed was that I grew up with Miracle Whip being "mayo," but that actually should have given it more of a kick and did not. Once it was chilled, all I tasted was a vague vinegar taste and nothing else, except the ham when it happened to be in that bite. Interesting that someone said the cucumber 'makes it' when I couldn't even taste them.

It was delicious! I used a can of corn instead of cucumbers and it's much sweeter and yummy!!

This is one of the best macaroni salads I have ever tasted. I did though cut half the amount of vinegar in it and it turned out delicious. Loved the cucumbers in it!! Will be using this recipe for my salad from now on.

I made this macaroni salad for a family get together. I have never made mac salad before so I used your recipe. It was a huge hit! Thank you so much! I used 2 16 oz. pkgs. of mac for 23 people and there was hardly any left. Again, thanks! Sincerely, Tammy G. I would like to add that if you want to change anything about the recipe then it's not the same recipe and maybe you should submit your own that people can use.

I made this salad for a family get together and everyone loved it. I added celery and fresh red onion to the salad (instead of dried onion) and it tasted great. I also used a little more than 1 cup of cucumber. I substituted red wine vinegar for the white wine vinegar. I also followed the recommendations of one of the reviewers and whisked the vinegar, oil and mayonaisse together. The cheese and the ham really added an extra layer of flavor to the salad.

I added a diced orange pepper, a tablespoon of ranch dressing and a few dashes of Frank's Red Hot sauce, and omitted the vinegar and olive oil. It turned out really good!! I'll definitely make it again!!
