Dressing:
Add cooked macaroni to a large mixing bowl along with all the other salad ingredients. Mix well.
Make dressing and pour over salad ingredients and stir until everything is blended together. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Best if made the day before and refrigerated overnight to allow the flavors to "marry".
Source: I wanted something very different so that there would be a noticeable contrast to my All American Potato Salad when served at the same time. It is certainly that.

We recently had 20 relatives over for a barbecue. I came up with the most inexpensive sides I could think of, and this was one of them. I originally found this recipe on All Recipes. I took all the comments that people wrote they would put in it and adapted it into this delicious salad. It makes a lot but we eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner for a few days. It's that good!
This salad has vegetables, macaroni, tomatoes, cheese and home made sauce! Is a great any time salad. Whenever I make it everyone wants the recipe.
This is another staple in my house while I was growing up that I have carried over to my own family. I just love the combination of ingredients in this. Great salad!
Cook macaroni in salted water until tender, rinse under cold water. Add the rest of ingredients and the dressing. May not need to use all the dressing.
In a bowl, combine the macaroni, tomato, cucumber, red pepper, basil, and parsley.
This is a recipe that was given to my mother by our next door neighbor. My husband, Justin, could eat this everyday if I made it.
Cook macaroni according to package directions; drain and rinse in cold water. In a large bowl, combine the macaroni, green onions, tomato and celery.
I was raised on this macaroni salad recipe. It was very common for our family to have this at the holiday season meals.
This macaroni salad has one of the best dressings I have ever had in a macaroni salad. Very sweet and good!
I think this is kind of a different take on ordinary macaroni salad! Very, very good! The cabbage makes this excellent!
I just love the whole combination of ingredients in this salad. You could almost eat this as a main dish with the meat and veggies both in it.
