Macaroni Salad (Paula Deen's)
2 cups cooked macaroni
3 hard boiled eggs, chopped
1/2 cup thinly sliced celery
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 small green onion, chopped
1 (2-oz.) jar diced pimentos, drained
1 Tablespoon honey Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Morten's Season-All Salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning
1 cup mayonnaise, chilled
1.) Combine all ingredients in a bowl.
2.) Note: After I prepared this salad, I chilled it in the refrigerator for 3 hours, but the salad seemed dry, so I prepared a bit more of the dressing, and added it immediately. What a difference that made. The salad was a lot more creamy, and stayed creamier, for several days in the fridge.
3.) Also, when adding a bit more of the dressing, I used, 1/2 cup Hellmann's Mayonnaise, 1/2 Tablespoon of the mustard, 1/4 teaspoon Morton's Season-All Salt, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/2 teaspoon Lawry's Lemmon Pepper seasoning.
