Macaroni only needs a few things to make it sublime. A creamy dressing, some chopped cooked eggs, fresh veggies, and a smattering of crisp dill pickles. This recipe has it all. Serves six.
INGREDIENTS (for 6 servings):
- 2 cups macaroni
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons chopped dill pickles
- 3/4 cup chopped celery
- 2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onion
- 3/4 cup fat free Italian-style dressing
- salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION:
In a pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta until al dente, rinse under cold water and drain.
Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil; cover, remove from heat, and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool, peel and chop.
In a large bowl, combine the pasta, eggs, pickles, celery and green onions. Pour dressing over salad and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper to taste; serve chilled.
