There’s hundreds of macaroni salad recipes out there. This is truly the easiest. It’s something I tried one day and, believe it or not, my family ate it! I started with a few handfuls of pasta. [You can use any kind you have on hand.] Cook as directed on the package. Rinse well with cold water to stop the cooking process. Let drain.
Finely chop a little bit of whatever your family likes to eat – carrots, dill pickles, celery, onion, black olives and mix with the pasta. Add enough ranch dressing to coat everything and mix well. [I always make my ranch dressing fresh. I have no use for bottled ranch dressing, regardless of brand; it doesn’t even taste like ranch.]
Chill an hour or so and it’s ready to eat.
The kids love it because of the ranch dressing.
I love it because they eat it.
