I should have measured the ingredients out while making this last night. I like pasta salad when there's more veggie than pasta going on. This recipe will never win a contest and is just a standard old macaroni salad, but it was quick to whip up and was darn tastey.
Macaroni Salad
1/4 to 1/3 of a bag of dry macaroni, cook until al dente
Nayonaise (add it dollop by dollop and mix until it's to your liking)
1 green pepper, diced
1/2 an onion, diced
3/4 to 1 cup of frozen corn
1/2 cup or more of frozen green beans
2 stalks of celery, diced
1 Tbs of nutritional yeast, heaping
1 tsp garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
Boil your macaroni and rinse it with cold water in a colander. Place in mixing bowl. Add Nayonaise a bit at a time and mix. I added it until it was just barely starting to get creamy (i.e. so that the salad was a bit "wet"). Add nutritional yeast and garlic powder. Dice celery, onion and green pepper and add to bowl. Mix in corn and green beans (I mixed them in frozen and let them thaw with the salad as it sat in the fridge overnight but you could thaw them beforehand). Mix and add salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate overnight.
