Hello welcome back to my channel I’m Christy and this is my easy summer recipe series if you’re not subscribed I would love it if you went ahead and done so give me a thumbs up and make sure you comment below today I’m going to be sharing an easy macaroni salad recipe

Complete recipe will be listed below in the description box ingredients needed for this recipe are elbow noodles mayonnaise mustard cucumber and assorted peppers I chose yellow red and orange first I start off by boiling my Barilla elbow noodles this is the 1 pound package I’m one of those rare people

That does not like I get my noodles completely done just cook your noodles to your preference once complete strain your noodles and rinse in cold water this stops the cooking process I’m using the chopping mat I picked up at the Dollar Tree I love these I’m going to start chopping

Up my peppers again I’m using the yellow orange and red these are my favorite peppers to use and these are a sweet pepper you need to dice your peppers and remove the seeds if anybody has any tips on how to make this process easier please fill me in

I feel the three different colored peppers when mixed in the macaroni salad makes it look more appetizing your goal here is to chop up enough for one full cup you’re going to want to peel your cucumber and then also dice it into small pieces I always use the seedless

Cucumbers but use whichever you prefer You will be adding 1/2 cup of cucumbers to the macaroni salad I use one and a half cups of mayonnaise then I add three tablespoons of mustard into a bowl with the mayonnaise and then mix them up really good [Applause] I let the macaroni noodles see it in the strainer just to get all the excess water off then I add that to the bowl with the mayonnaise and mustard add salt and pepper use as much as you prefer last I add in my one cup of chopped

Peppers and my 1/2 cup of cucumbers and mix well there are several different variations to this recipe when my mom makes it she adds three drops of white vinegar and also sugar I like to refrigerate my macaroni salad in a covered bowl over not I feel like it

Gives it plenty enough time for all the flavors to come together and that is my easy macaroni salad thank you so much for watching remember to Like and subscribe I hope everyone is having a great summer until next time bye

  1. It looks delicious I'm going to try it I love macaroni salad, I could never get it right now maybe I can have a good day.

  2. Looks really good Kristi…I'm not a cucumber fan so I will add eggs an sum vinegar to mine…an I luv miracle whip…tfs😌

  3. Thanks Kristi! Definitely will make this. I 💛 Mac salad! More recipies please. Oh , my mom adds diced apples too.

  4. Hi Kristi, I am going to try your recipe. Your recipe is different and easier than the one I have made in the past. And that is what this all about, EASY summer recipes. My tip: I have been known to chop my peppers in the food processor, or use a chef's knife, ( the knife is the secret) seed, qtr and stack the peppers, slice through, give them a slight turn and dice them all at once. For the cucumbers, I peel and then cut it lengthwise into qtrs., instead of rounds, then I just slice my way down the length of the cucumber. Love all of your videos, tfs! ❤

  5. Anytime I make a mayo based salad I usually do part mayo part Miracle Whip. And I also add dill. To make the veggie prep go faster I have a Vidalia Chop Wizard.

  6. Looks yummy! You are using a small pairing knife to chop. If you stack your pepper slices and use a chef's knife to cut down the center and rough chop it will be faster.

  7. Love macaroni salad. Only hint I can share is I use a potato pealer on the cucumber works great. A friend uses canned chicken, celery and onions , next time going to add those pretty peppers! Thank you for your wonderful videos!

  8. Kristi, your Macaroni Salad is DELICIOUS! 😊 We made it to take to a Birthday Party Picnic, it was enjoyed by all 18 at the party. Thank you for sharing your recipe!

  9. If you use vegatable chopper, I think it may be more convenient to make this recipes hahah
