Bacon & Tomato Macaroni Salad

Bacon and tomato take plain old macaroni salad to a whole new level...

Ingredients:
1 cup dry elbow macaroni, cooked, rinsed and drained
1/3 cup diced celery
1/4 cup minced red onion, soaked in cold water for 5 minutes- then drained
1 Tablespoon minced flat-leaf parsley
1/2 cup diced vine-ripened tomatoes
1/3 cup mayonnaise
3 Tablespoons sour cream
1 Tablespoon cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon granulated white sugar
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
freshly ground black pepper
4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled

Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine macaroni, celery, onion, parsley, and tomato.

2. In a small bowl, prepare the dressing. Mix mayo, mustard, sugar, vinegar, sour cream and salt.

3. Add dressing to the pasta mixture and stir to combine. Season with freshly ground black pepper, to taste. Sprinkle crumbled bacon on top.

Tips:
*If you don't care for a mayo-based macaroni salad, feel free to substitute an Italian dressing for the mayo dressing.

Lisa, I made this a few weeks ago and it's good. I had to use green onions 'cause I didn't have red, but it worked fine. Also, my recipe called for small shell pasta which I thought worked well.

Definitely a keeper.
