[recipe re-post] Fleetwood Macaroni Salad; was: Pasta Salad Recipe question

[Guest guest]

Yes, Happy Father's Day to all the dads here and

everywhere in the world!

 

One of my favorite macaroni salads is in our files here

that Donna shared with us from her Native Foods

Restaurant cookbook. I have been known to stir in

a can of chickpeas to this one in place of the corn

kernels:

 

" Fleetwood Macroni Salad "

 

2 cups elbow macaroni, boil and drain

1 cup fresh or defrosted corn kernels

1/2 cup chopped celery

1/2 cup chopped carrot

1/2 cucumber peeled and chopped

1/2 cup red bell pepper chopped

1/4 cup chopped parsley (I used cilantro)

1/4 cup chopped chives or green onions

1/4 cup lemon juice

1 cup vegan mayo or mayo of your choice

1 1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. pepper

(I added some sliced black olives and cherry tomatoes to mine)

 

Toss all ingredients together, and put on some hits from the 70's.

 

Variation:

Add 2 tsp. curry powder. For an extra-spicy touch add an additional

1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper.

Want to give it a nice bright sunshiny yellow, toss a dash of turmeric

in too.
