Much like my Grandma’s Potato Salad (THE BEST) and my Creamy Coleslaw, there’s no bells and whistles on this macaroni salad. Sometimes you just don’t mess around with the classics. It does not store any personal data.Nothing says summertime eating like a serving of the best, classic macaroni salad with eggs and crisp vegetables dressed in a simple and creamy but still light mayonnaise dressing for any picnic, potluck, or barbecue.

Cilantro- The bright, herbaceous flavor of fresh cilantro makes this salad truly shine.Green Onion- Thinly sliced green onion adds a mild onion flavor to the salad.Carrot- I like to use my vegetable peeler to peel the carrot into thin strips, allowing it to blend in easily with the noodles.Shredding the cabbage allows for better integration with the noodles and other ingredients.
