I really love Amish Macaroni Salad, and this is my favorite recipe for it. Amish Macaroni Salad is somewhat on the sweet side, so if you don't mind your salads sweet, I think you'll like it too. It's even better the next day, so if you can, let it sit overnight. I got the recipe from a Berk's County website a while back. NOTE: It does make a lot of salad, so if you wanted a smaller amount, it halves easily. Just use the 3 eggs chopped up and just garnish with paprika. Time does not including cooking the macaroni.

IMO, this is missing 3 key ing's. a pinch of salt, pickle relish and celery seed Also, since we absolutely detest miracle whip, we use mayonnaise. The hot macaroni soaks up any liquid, so make sure your macaroni is completely cooled, before adding the dressing. So it won't be dry when you take it out of the fridge later to enjoy.1Reply
