Macaroni Salad
Say goodbye to the macaroni salad you had when you were a child and say hello to this updated recipe. Dare I say it’s elevated? This macaroni salad has red cabbage, hard-boiled eggs, carrots, green onions, red onion, and parsley, plus the dressing has dijon mustard and honey. It truly is a step up from what your grandmother made. Instead of a mushy texture, this macaroni salad has structure and crunch from the added ingredients—and it’s filling. It pairs well with sandwiches, burgers, ribs, chicken—well really anything. Enjoy!
