Macaroni salad w/no miracle whip?!
Macaroni salad w/no miracle whip?
If you wanted to make a macaroni salad but didn't like miracle whip or mayo, what would you substitute?
Answers:
take some plain yogurt and strain it through a cheesecloth to get rid of most of the liquid (takes about 2-3 hours) and then use that. it tastes slightly like sour cream. it will mix in well, it will be nice and creamy and tastes nothing like mayo or that nasty crap miracle whip. for a kick you can also add a touch of dijon mustard, some dill, some chives, whatever you want. but just make sure you strain it first because if you use it without straining your salad will be runny!

My personal favourite is a "greek" pasta salad.
I cook up the pasta and throw in crunchy bits of carrots, cucumber and onions and crumble in feta cheese and pour on the greek dressing.
