This is the best Macaroni Salad I have ever made. My doggie ate the recipe that I left on the sofa. I was desperate to find it again and thank goodness I did. Thanks for being there with your great recipes. My family loves this recipe and my friends have repeatedly asked for it.

I think this is a very tasty macaroni salad and it's quite quick and easy to put together. I did slice grape tomatoes in half and would highly recommend adding the tomatoes.

I made this dish for my bible study group. I left with an empty bowl.<br/>Added this to my cookbook. YUM!
