Macaroni Salad. (Ken BurrisEatingWell / August 15, 2012) |
Old-fashioned macaroni salad sometimes contains jarred pimientos, diced ham or pickle relish, but this version is simple and deliciously plain with fresh chopped celery, carrot and onion. A combination of low-fat mayo and sour cream lightens up the dressing, and whole-wheat elbow noodles, spinach and edamame add extra nutrients.
To make ahead, cover and refrigerate for up to three days.
