This recipe is easily multiplied for a crowd. Everyone in my family asks me to bring this to our functions. I even make it for weddings. Sometimes I use a mixture of different kinds of pasta, especially if I only have a little of this kind or that. Depending on what type of macaroni used, more dressing may be required. The recipe calls for red onion, but sweet onion is great, too.

Ingredients

  • macaroni: 1 pack (16 ounce pack)
  • eggs: 4 piece
  • mayonnaise: 1 cup
  • sour cream: 0.5 cup
  • salt: 1 tsp (to taste)
  • ground black pepper: 0.25 tsp (to taste)
  • ground mustard: 0.25 tsp
  • sweet pickle juice: 2 Tbsp
  • celery seed: 2 Tbsp
  • celery: 1 cup (chopped)
  • red onion: 0.5 cup (chopped)
  • pimento-stuffed green olives: 0.5 cup
  • sweet pickle: 0.25 cup (chopped)
  • carrots: 2 piece (grated)
  • green bell pepper: 1 piece (chopped)

  2. Meanwhile, place eggs in a saucepan, and fill with enough cold water to cover eggs completely by about 1 inch. Bring water to a boil. Cover, remove from heat, and let eggs stand in hot water for 20 minutes. Immediately remove from hot water and cool in an ice water bath. When cool enough to handle, peel and chop eggs.
