Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces elbow macaroni
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup diced celery
  • 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup diced red onion
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas thawed
  • 2 hard-boiled eggs chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Method
 

  1. Cook the elbow macaroni according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
  3. Add the cooled macaroni, celery, red bell pepper, red onion, peas, and chopped hard-boiled eggs to the bowl. Gently fold the ingredients together until everything is evenly coated with the dressing.
  4. Stir in the chopped parsley for added freshness.
  5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled.

Notes

  • For a bit of crunch, add 1/2 cup of diced pickles or relish.
  • Substitute Greek yogurt for half of the mayonnaise for a lighter version.
