Let me share with you the ultimate macaroni salad recipe! It's full of flavor and it makes the perfect side for barbecue, fried chicken, etc. There is a time and place for just the regular classic macaroni salad but why not jump on the bus and create this deliciousness to wow everybody at your next barbecue! Or make this for a Sunday picnic by the lake.

Let me show you how to make this delicious macaroni salad. First, you want to boil the macaroni. In a large pot add 6 to 8 cups of water, add salt and bring to a boil. Add in macaroni and cook for 8 minutes. Remove from heat, drain and rinse. Let macaroni cool completely while you prep the rest of the ingredients.

For the bell peppers I used red this time, but you can use any color pepper, green, orange, or yellow.

For the sauce, add all of the ingredients into a large mixing bowl, whisk until thoroughly mixed.

Add all the veggies, ham, cheese, eggs, and macaroni into the sauce and stir to combine.

Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to serve. Garnish with green onions if desired.
