4th of July Appetizers: Deli Style Macaroni Salad
Ingredients
- 1 lb macaroni pasta
- 1 cup mayo
- 1/4 cup vinegar
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp celery salt
- 2 carrots finely shredded
- 2 celery stalks finely diced
- 2 scallions finely sliced
- 1 red bell pepper finely diced
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook the macaroni pasta in boiling salted water according to package instructions. Allow the macaroni pasta to cool for at least 15 minutes.
- While the pasta cooks, prepare the dressing. In a large bowl, combine the mayo, vinegar, mustard, sugar, celery salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until well combined.
- Add the carrots, peppers, scallions, and celery to the bowl and mix until well combined.
- Stir in the cooked pasta and season generously with salt and pepper. Add more mayo if needed and enjoy!
Notes
- If making this ahead of time, stir in some extra mayo and a splash of water right before serving. Also, make sure to check for seasoning.
- Classic deli macaroni salad doesn’t include eggs but feel free to add hard-boiled eggs.
- Want to make it extra flavorful? Add some extra herbs like basil, parsley, and dill. Also, green peas and shredded cheddar cheese go great in this too!
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Most of the time the dressing sits at the bottom of the bowl, so make sure to mix well.
- Garnish with fresh scallions or paprika, if desired.
