Recipe(tried): Macaroni Salad

Maggie: We rarely measured our ingredients, but here is the general idea. I hope this is close to the one you remember.

Macaroni Salad

2 c Macaroni or tiny shells
1 ts Oil
2 ts Salt
3/4 c Miracle whip
2 ts Pimento; chopped
2 ts Green onion
2 ts Sweet pickle, chopped
1 can black olives, sliced
1 ts Sugar
1 ts Mustard, prepared
1/2 ts Seasoned salt
1/4 ts Pepper
dash of Paprika
2 1/2 qt Boiling water

Instructions

In large uncovered Dutch oven cook macaroni in boiling water, cooking oil and salt until tender but firm, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain, Rinse with cold water. Drain well. Return macaroni to pot.

Combine next 8 ingredients in a small bowl. Mix well. Add to macaroni. Toss together well. Turn into serving bowl. Chill for one hour or more. If you want it more moist, add a bit of milk. (Note: Our family loves black olives. We usually started making this salad with two cans on hand. That way one can might make it into the salad.)
