Directions:Prepare macaroni noodles according to package instructions. Drain and rinse immediately with cold water, then drizzle with a teaspoon of olive oil and gently stir so the noodles don't stick together as they sit. In a large bowl, combine macaroni noodles, sweet pickles, red pepper, celery, red onion, peas and eggs. Stir until well-combined. Set aside and prepare your dressing.
Dressing: Mix mayonnaise, sour cream, milk, vinegar, sweet pickle juice, sugar, dijon mustard, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper (if using) in a medium-sized bowl. Whisk until ingredients are well-combined. Pour dressing over your macaroni salad ingredients and toss until well-combined. For best flavor, cover bowl and allow macaroni salad to chill for at least one hour. Stir once more before serving and enjoy! |
