Submitted by hotdishmama

"This is our family's favorite ever. It started originally with a Justin Wilson recipe that we've modified over the years. It has just the right amount of zing - not your mama's macaroni salad!"

This is great! The dressing is so good with just the right amount of zing to it. It definitely tastes better the second day!
