Macaroni and Cheese Salad
Description
This is pure picnic food, but can work as a winter 's evening supper as well. Macaroni noodles are cooked up and splashed with vinegar and then folded into chilled veggies - tomatoes, cheese, peppers, green onions, and celery. Then comes the herbed mayonnaise. Serves six.
