Instruktioner

Cook macaroni in lightly salted water till done. Drain in a colander. Set aside.

Mix mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, milk and pickle juice in medium sized bowl.

In large bowl place cooked macaroni. Add about 3/4's of the mayonnaise mixture to the macaroni.

Next add the peppers, pickles, olives and onions. If needed, add the remaining dressing.

Add a splash of pickle juice to the salad. The salad dressing will thicken up after refrigeration.

Refrigerate for at least two hours before serving.
