Something a little different I came up with that satisfies my need for something savory and sweet, but with more vegetables than the typical pasta salad.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Rinse under cold water and set aside to drain.
- While pasta is cooking, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crisp, 10 to 12 minutes. Blot bacon slices with paper towels and crumble when cool enough to handle.
- Mix together mayonnaise, apple juice, apple cider vinegar, relish, mustard powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Fold in cooked macaroni. Add onion, carrots, red cabbage, bell pepper, celery, apple, and crumbled bacon; stir to combine. Place 2 or 3 lettuce leaves on each plate and top with macaroni salad.
