The best macaroni salad! Perfect side dish at any BBQ or potluck!
This salad recipe comes from my brother, Preston. He really enjoys creating different recipes. He worked on this one for a while to get it just right. He is kind of a food connoisseur. If I ever want to know what to order at a restaurant I always call him for a recommendation. It’s pretty entertaining to listen to him describe different dishes and how/why you want to order certain things, a certain way.We definitely share a love for food!
I made this salad to go along with our french onion burger over the 4th of July. It is a great combo for a BBQ or potluck side dish.
