Cucumber Tomato Macaroni Salad

Total Time: 24 hrs Preparation Time: 24 hrs

Ingredients

  • Servings: 6
  • 1 lb elbow macaroni, cooked to eldente, drained and rinsed well
  • 1 large cucumber, peeled and diced
  • 1 large tomato, chopped with liquid included
  • 1 small onion, chopped (more to suit taste)
  • 1 large green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 2 -3 hard-boiled eggs, peeled cooled, and chopped (optional)
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise (hellman's is best)
  • 1/2 cup miracle whip
  • 2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
  • 2 teaspoons celery salt, to taste
  • 2 teaspoons seasoning salt, to taste
  • black pepper

Recipe

  • 1 in a large bowl, combine all ingredients; toss to coat (adding more mayo and/or salad dressing to taste).
  • 2 cover; refrigerate overnight to blend flavors.
  • 3 stir before serving.
  • 4 note: if you don't want to include the cooked hard-boiled eggs in the salad, i sometimes cook up 6-7 (or how many you desire), and just cut them into four pieces, and just lay them on top evenly around a large bowl with the pasta salad, so people have the option of having them or not-- and it makes for a nice presentaion-- if you are adding them into the salad, then 2-3 chopped should be enough.
