Ingredients

2 cups elbow macaroni (uncooked)

1 cup red bell peppers (diced)

1/2 cup red onion (diced) optional

1/2 cup celery (diced)

2 large hard-boiled eggs

1 Tbsp chopped parsley (optional for garnish)

1/2 cup mayonnaise

3 tbsp apple cider vinegar

3 tbsp sweet relish

3 tsp yellow mustard

1 tsp ground black pepper

1 tsp salt (adjust to taste)

Directions

Cook the elbow macaroni in salted water according to the package instructions until it is aldente - it should be tender but firm to the bite. Drain and rinse the pasta under cold water to stop the cooking process and set it aside.

In a separate bowl, combine all the dressing ingredients together and whisk until smooth and creamy.

Place the macaroni into a large bowl. Add the diced bell peppers, red onion, celery, eggs, and any other desired mix-ins*.

Pour in the dressing and stir to combine. Garnish with parsley if desired and serve right away or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
