Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Food, Cooking, and Game Preparation Macaroni Salad

I add celery seed to tuna and chicken salad, too. Friend used to rave about how it added good flavor. I figured, what can it add? I already put celery in there. I was wrong.

One of my favorite side dishes. Everytime I make it it would be different; always good but sometimes better than others. I started looking for a recipe that was similar to how I do it that would lend consistency. I found one I like on the Hellman's site.

* A cup of mayo seemed like a lot for this amount of elbows. I cut the mayo amount in half.
