This is the best macaroni salad ever. I've made it a few times and everyone always raves about it. I add a little of Dinosaur BBQ's cajun ForePlay seasoning to it for a little kick. Mmm mm good!

    I made this beacuse I wanted a macaroni salad with vegetables only and no meat. This was quite flavorful; the spicy brown mustard was a nice addition that made it different from other macaroni salads. I added some shredded carrots for additional color.

    I knew when I saw the spicy brown mustard in this salad, I would have to try it. As expected, we loved it! The mustard (along with the garlic, of course) just made the dish. I'm not fond of macaroni salads that are dressed with way too much mayo, with the mayo being about all that you can taste. I really liked that this one was not overdressed, but packed a lot of great flavor. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe!

    This is an excellent salad. I loved the different flavor the creole mustard and garlic added. I mixed the dressing and added about 2/3rds of it to the salad, chilled, and then stirred in the rest right before serving. I liked how this salad wasn't gloppy with too much mayo. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe!
