Description

Enjoy this delicious Potato Mac Salad, a creamy and tangy Hawaiian dish perfect for any gathering.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Small Potatoes (Yukon gold or red potatoes)
  • 1 cup Elbow Macaroni (Gluten-free pasta can be used)
  • 1 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 cup Mayonnaise (Can substitute with Greek yogurt)
  • 1/4 cup Milk (Any milk or non-dairy alternative)
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar (Optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper
  • 1 small Carrot (Grated)
  • 1/2 medium Grated Onion (Chill before grating)
  • 2 large Hard Boiled Eggs (Optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Potatoes: Peel and cube the small potatoes, then boil them in salted water for about 5 minutes until tender but not mushy.
  2. Cook the Macaroni: Add the elbow macaroni to the boiling potatoes. Cook for an additional 6-8 minutes, until both the potatoes and macaroni are tender; drain, then toss with apple cider vinegar to absorb the flavors.
  3. Mix the Dressing: In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, milk, sugar, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
  4. Combine Ingredients: Gently fold the drained potatoes and macaroni into the mayonnaise mixture. Then, add the grated carrots, onions, and hard-boiled eggs (if using), mixing until evenly coated.
  5. Chill the Salad: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to let the flavors meld and the salad chill completely.
  6. Serve: Stir the salad gently before serving, and enjoy it cold with your favorite grilled dishes or at your next gathering!
