It needs more bacon, red bell pepper and onion. Some garlic wouldn't hurt either. Maybe a pinch of wasabi also.

Cool. Do you have a good recipe for oatmeal cookies? Can you bake a couple of dozen and send them to me?

Sounds great and I would add sliced ripe olives and sundried ‘maters.

We like to slice up a few pepperoncini’s and mix them in. Gives the salad a little zing.

Yes to all of the above ... I would add some chopped celery and cubed pepper jack cheese (small cubes).

I love it! Nothing better than a cold macaroni salad on your paper plate! And I’d keep it just as suggested.

Another cold salad I’m crazy about is pea salad with scallions and diced cheddar cheese.

I’m a Miracle Whip person all the way.

Mayonnaise is good and everything but I always fall back on Miracle Whip.

i've found this salad to be one of my crowd pleasing favotrites

2 pkgs. prepared tortellini pasta (Mushroom and cheese)filled

one large red onion

half a bag of prepared spinach chopped

bacon bits to taste

light ranch dressing to taste and hold together

it's the best i've found and very easy. colorful crowdpleaser.

i've also played with green and black olives sliced. black seems to work the best the tortellini gives the salad a very hearty feel. almost a meal by itself.

I do like the wasabi idea given earlier, i might have to try that in some form.

One of my vices is drinking beer and cooking for a backyard BBQ with family etc. its a very relaxing way to spend my day.

S’OK with me. Love sun dried tomatoes. Olives are always good. Damn, I’m hungry!
