MARGIE'S SALMON MACARONI SALAD
I have no clue who Margie is, but I have been making this delicious pasta salad for years. I usually double the recipe and always remove the skin and the bones. I usually substitute dehydrated minced onions for the green onion.

PAM'S SALMON AND MACARONI SALAD
High school recipe for Foods III, senior class. When Salmon was about the same price as Tuna. I love to play with this salad, adding other things and trying new herbs. But this is the "Original" version.

Steps:
- 1. Cook Macaroni as directed in salted water. Drain macaroni and cool under very cold running water. Shake as much water off as possible before making salad.
- 2. While cooking pasta, chop and prepare all other ingredients.
- 3. Combine all ingredients and toss lightly to blend.
- 4. Serve on lettuce cups and garnish with chopped parsley and /or paprika.
- 5. I just love the Directions. So Gourmet don't you think?
Tips:
- Choose the right macaroni: Elbow macaroni is the classic choice for macaroni salad, but you can also use other short pasta shapes like penne, rotini, or shells.
- Cook the macaroni al dente: This means cooking it until it is just tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked macaroni will become mushy and absorb too much of the dressing.
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your macaroni salad will taste. Use fresh vegetables, herbs, and a good-quality mayonnaise.
- Don't overdress the salad: A little dressing goes a long way. Too much dressing will make the salad soggy and bland.
- Chill the salad before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and will make the salad more refreshing.
