I got this recipe years ago on the label of Kraft Miracle Whip Light. My whole family loved it! I looked on Kraft's website and couldn't find the recipe any more. It's difficult now to find a 30oz jar of spaghetti sauce or a 7oz box of elbow macaroni. Sometimes we'll substitute jack cheese for the Kraft 1/3 less fat Natural Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese from the original recipe. -
I felt like there was wayyy too much mayo in this and I ended up adding a hodge podge of different spices and cheese in order to bear with the taste of the mayo. I'm not a huge mayo person, but I thought the red sauce would overpower that. My boyfriend hasn't tried it, but I'm sure he'll love since he absolutely loves mayonnaise. -
This is easy and tastes very good. A little tangy from the mayo. My daughter had seconds, so this is definitely a do-over for our house.

I originally joined the site as "aussiekarin", but decided instead to go with my nickname - Kayne. Sorry if this causes any confusion! I moved to the US from Australia in 1970, and apart from three years in Germanyhave been here the whole time. However, still consider myself an Australian, although I was actually born in Holland. Since I come from such a diversified background, my cooking is rather strange at times. Many times it is a combiniation of Dutch, Aussie / English, German and American. I'm not really much of a cook, but enjoy it, nevertheless. I just wish I knew more and could do more - without a recipe! I'm retired now, so one of my goals is to really learn to cook. I intend to enjoy my retirement, doing what I never had time to do before. Since joining Recipezaar in November, 2006, I find that my cooking has changed somewhat. I'm more adventurous, willing to try new and more varied tastes, and combinations, and just about all of what I prepare is edible. Lately, due to a major life change, I've been letting my cooking go, but hopefully that will change one day. Oddly, I miss it, more than I ever thought I would!!!!!
