Ingredients

  • 1 pound elbow macaroni
  • 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 cups whole or 2% milk (not skim)

Divine! SO much flavor here, it's easy to make, and it's pretty affordable, too

I recently went to Maui and Hawaiians certainly love their mac salad! I can't wait to try this version and reminisce about my trip.

This looks easy enough! I think I have all of the ingredients in my kitchen right now. To make it even easier, I will probably use pre-shredded carrots and leftover cooked pasta from last night's dinner.
