Classic Macaroni Salad

Of course the ingredients can vary according to what you have “make it work” 😉 from seasoning to veggies; many like relish in theirs, we do NOT, green onions are great, or leaving out one or two 🤷‍♀️ TASTE as you go. You might like more or less vinegar? More sugar? Salt…pepper, celery salt works if you’re out of celery, recipe doesn’t list radishes, but I use them whenever i have them, I’ve used olives, etc..
