I was excited to make this salad as my friend at work made it and it received rave reviews. However, I just made it for my family and we wound up throwing the whole batch out. The flavor of the chili sauce and lemon juice is overpowering and quite frankly is disconcerting. A big waste of money....sorry :( -
This was a great change from regular macaroni salad, I will probably lessen the amount of chili sauce next time and add more bacon. It should be chilled overnight for the best flavor. I tried this for My Three Chefs 08. Thank you!
