Macaroni Salad

Description

I got this recipe from our cafeteria cook. Even a plateful of macaroni salad never makes you feel heavy. It’s easy to prepare.
Ingredients-1
2 cup Elbow macaroni
½ cup Finely sliced celery
½ cup Green peas (cooked) / processed peas
½ cup Finely cubed carrot (steamed for 2 mins with salt)
½ cup Corn (boiled)
3 tsp Thinly sliced green onions
Ingredients-2
1 cup Mayonnaise
2 T Milk
2 pinch Garlic powder
¼ Pepper powder (black or white)
Salt for taste

Instructions

Cook macaroni as stated on the package. Drain the water and rinse with cold water. Again drain the water. Water must be drained thoroughly. Mix cooked macaroni, vegetables & green onion in a large bowl. Stir the mayonnaise, milk, salt, and pepper together in a separate bowl. Pour dressing over the macaroni mixture. Toss lightly to coat. Cover & leave it at least 2 hours and then serve.

Notes

Adding coarsely chop 2 hard-cooked eggs gives different taste. 1 Cup of Frozen Vegetables can be used instead of carrot, corn & peas. Can garnish with coriander leaves or tomatoes. Can cover and chill at least 2 hours and then serve.
