Total Time 30 minutes

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 10 minutes

Yield 14

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound ditalini pasta (or elbow pasta)
1 red bell pepper (chopped)
2 ribs celery (finely chopped)
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
1/2 cup chopped sweet pickles
3 hard boiled eggs (chopped)
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
chopped fresh parsley
paprika

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook pasta according to package directions for al dente. Transfer the pasta to a colander, rinse it with cold water and drain well. Set pasta aside to cool while you prepare the rest of the salad ingredients. Stir the pasta occasionally to prevent it from sticking together.
  • In a large bowl, combine the red bell pepper, celery, onion, pickles and hard boiled eggs.
  • To make the dressing, combine the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon, sugar, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Whisk until well combined and smooth.
  • When the pasta is completely cooled, add it to the bowl with the other pasta salad ingredients. Pour on the dressing and stir until everything is well combined.
  • Cover and chill macaroni salad in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving. It will keep for up to 3 days when stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

HAWAIIAN MACARONI SALAD RECIPE: HOW TO MAKE IT



Hawaiian Macaroni Salad Recipe: How to Make It image

I had to figure out how to make Hawaiian Macaroni Salad at home because my husband was getting tired of ordering enough for our whole family from a local restaurant.
