Whether you are going to a backyard barbecue or just looking to make a good side dish or snack, macaroni salad is a classic. This macaroni salad is made with pineapple, chopped vegetables, and a distinctively seasoned mayonnaise dressing.
This recipe is so easy, you just need to cook the elbow macaroni with the right tender so it would look and taste fine when mixed with the other ingredients. It is also perfect appetizer for every occasion that you can store in the fridge and take out for unexpected visitors.
It is fairly easy to throw together this meal, and it is a definite crowd-pleaser. Bring it to your next party and watch it disappear. Just remember that it includes mayonnaise that can go bad if it is left in warm temperatures for too long. Refrigerate shortly after serving so the ingredients do not spoil and stay fresh.
