Number Of Ingredients 12

Kosher salt
1 pound elbow macaroni
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise

I'm not a fan of mayonnaise, so I used Greek yogurt instead. It worked really well and the salad was still creamy and delicious.

I love the smoky flavor in this salad. I used smoked paprika and it gave the salad a really nice flavor. I also added some chopped bacon and it was delicious.

This is a great recipe for a summer picnic or potluck. It's easy to make and it travels well. I also like that it can be made ahead of time, so I can just grab it and go when I'm running out the door.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover macaroni. I always have some leftover macaroni after making a pasta dish, and this salad is a perfect way to use it up. It's also a great way to get kids to eat their vegetables.

I'm not usually a fan of macaroni salad, but this recipe changed my mind. The smokiness from the paprika and the tanginess from the vinegar and mustard are a perfect combination. I'll definitely be making this again.
