Macaroni Salad with Cheddar Cheese

Macaroni Salad What can be more American than macaroni and cheese, I thought? So it was a simple stretch to make a great picnic side dish Macaroni salad with cheddar cheese and diced bell pepper. Simple easy to make and will feed lots and lots of hungry BBQer's.

Directions

  1. Cook the macaroni and drain and let cool slightly.
  2. In a large mixing bowl add the sour cream, mayonnaise, vinegar, cheese,bell pepper & salt & pepper.
  3. Add the slightly warm macaroni and mix completely.
  4. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  5. If making far in advance you may have to add a little bit of whole milk to keep it moist, as the sauce will be absorbed by the macaroni.
  6. Add the milk a little at a time until the macaroni is moist but not really wet as too much milk will dilute the sauce too much.
