Number Of Ingredients 14

1 -16 Ounce Box Elbow Pasta
2 Cups Mayonnaise
2 Tablespoons Red Wine Vinegar
1 Teaspoon Sugar
2 Teaspoons Salt
1 1/2 Teaspoons Pepper
1/2 Teaspoons Dried Mustard
3 Tablespoons Sweet Pickle Juice
1/2 Cup Whole Milk

2 Tablespoons Fresh Parsley (Finely Chopped)

Steps:

  • Cook the macaroni just until it's al dente according to package directions in lightly salted water; drain and rinse with cold water until completely cool. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, dried mustard, sweet pickle juice and milk until smooth. Stir in macaroni, celery, red pepper, red onion and olives. Chill for 6 hours. If you like a thinner dressing, simply add 1 Tablespoon at a time, of either milk, water, or even more sweet pickle juice, to the finished salad, toss well to combine. Continue adding your liquid of choice, in 1 Tablespoon increments, until you reach desired consistency. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve
