Macaroni Salad

FAQ

Macaroni salad is a type of pasta salad, served cold, made with cooked elbow macaroni and usually prepared with mayonnaise. Much like potato salad or coleslaw in its use, it is often served as a side dish to barbecue, fried chicken, or other picnic style dishes.
Rinsing your pasta also stops the cooking process, which will ensure that your pasta isn't overcooked and mushy. By washing away the starchy film on the pasta, you're guaranteeing that when you toss the pasta with your other salad components and dressing, the pasta won't stick together or clump.
The 49th person brings the picnic plates, cups, knives, forks, spoons etc. Pasta salad as a side dish, you can generally estimate about 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup per person. This roughly to about 3 to 4 ounces (0.2 to 0.25 pounds) per person. So, you would need approximately 2.1 to 2.75 pounds of pasta salad for 11 people.
While most pasta salads are served chilled, you can mix things up a bit by serving it warm. This can be ideal for gatherings when it's cold outside while also making for an easy side that stretches to feed a crowd.
