Your title made me smile and I knew I had to try this. As I child, I didn't like crunchies in my macaroni salad so my mom would make me my own batch. This recipe was easy to make. I followed the recipe as written but I needed to add a lot more mayo then indicated. I put in one cup and it still wasn't enough. From there I just dumped it in, I didn't measure. We thought it was missing something though- just not sure what (and it wasn't anything cruchy! LOL) I did add the optional eggs.

This is quite tasty despite having no "crunchies." I used the optional hard-boiled eggs. The only thing I did differently was that instead of onion powder, I used fresh red onion. I chopped it really fine, so there still wouldn't be much "crunch." I like that this is quick and easy to make and great for kids and adults alike. Thanx for posting!
