Cooking Instructions
- 1
Turn on water and bring to a boil and I pinch of salt. Add noodles. I used spiral. Boil eggs either before or at same time. Drain noodles and let cool
- 2
After eggs boil for about 10-12 minutes. Turn off and drain out water and put cold water over the eggs. Keep the eggs in water until ready to peel.

Chop onions,garlic set aside. Peel and cut up eggs. With noodles in a bowl put in onions, garlic,eggs and all the other ingredients. Drain the liquid out of the tiny shrimp. You can use tuna as an alternative.

Now you want to thin out just a little bit the salad. So take 1/4 c water and add slowly stop and stir halfway through. If it’s nice and creamy stop there. The macaroni will absorb moisture so now is the best time to make it creamy. Adjust salt to your taste and refrigerate until cool. If a little tart add a pinch of sugar

Serve as a side dish or by itself.

Best Macaroni Salad Best Macaroni Salad
My mother in law introduced me to this salad. The large amount of pickles and eggs is what makes this salad so good.Be sure to make plenty of dressing. Error on the side of making this salad a bit too wet. As it sits, this salad will absorb a lot of the dressing, making it dry if you do not use enough.
