Homemade Macaroni Salad 

Hi toybox, thanks for the update, and glad that you found out about the pasta, most people don't want to trust me on the time. Adding the boiled eggs makes it your own mac salad, how cool is that. Thanks for your comment and for watching. The BEC

I concur with the boiled eggs. A critical ingredient. I also believe the sweet relish and the salad macaroni are needed. Many times I've been to a deli and saw a great looking mac salad only to find drill chuck pickle in the mix. Always ask for a taste.

Hi Susan, Yes, this is one of my favorite salad recipes that I make, and most people request the mac salad most of the time. Let me know how it turns out for you. Thanks for your comment and for watching, be safe out there. The BEC

Hi Avasings, Yes, this is a great recipe, I think you will like it. It is on the sweeter side, so for myself, I don't really care for eggs in this salad.

Hi Mark, let me know how it turns out, thanks for the comment and for watching. The BEC

Dinner tonight at Dads. Made the salad yesterday, wanted the flavors to work before it hits the table. “Taste Testers” say it’s pretty darn good.

Everyone loved the salad. Mixed a little to early so more Mayonnaise was needed. Dish was eaten to 85%,.

@@thebigeasychef Sure will. Need to see if I can find relish. We make a lot of pasta salad with pickles but yours looks better with the relish. Have a great day.

Hi 2Eternity, if you can't find relish, I do have a recipe for making it, requires a little work but it is great for this salad, keep me posted. Thanks for your comment and for watching. The BEC

Hi Julian, yes the red peppers are canned, you know those ones that come in a jar. It is my pleasure to share my recipes, thank you for your comment. The BEC

Thanks for watching. The BEC

@@grandmajane2593 I think it's all a matter of each person's personal tastes, because I only buy Best Food's mayonnaise, (Hellman's), because I love the flavor so much. Now, I have tried Kraft brand mayonnaise, only once, and it was yucky to me, bland, with no flavor. It did not taste good to me. It was such a turn-off, that I went right back to the store, and had them give me my money back! The only reason that I had tried the Kraft, was because it was on sale, and I didn't have enough money at that time, to buy the good stuff. This was 17 years ago!! Lesson learned. Never do it again.

Hi Olivia, thanks for being a fan, and new videos are in the works right now, so stand by. The BEC

+thebigeasychef oh yeah!! please do!!

Hi Penny, thank you for your question, yes you can buy roasted bell peppers they come in a jar most of the time, and you can find them in with the pickles most of the time, thanks for your question and for watching. The BEC

@@thebigeasychef Thank u for ur reply. I will look for some at my grocery store, Kroger. Looks delicious!!

Hi Pam, 17 minutes seems to always work for me, the macaroni is tender and ready to absorb the mayonnaise mixture, thanks for your comment and for watching. The BEC

He must be in high altitude for that length of time

Once it cools 17 is just right 👍

Hi Pham Loan, Thank you for your comment and for watching. Happy New Year to you, The BEC

Hi Bill, that sounds interesting, I am sure that it has a nice twang to it. Thanks for your comment and for watching. The BEC

Hi Fitn' 2 Grub, thanks for subscribing, also thanks for watching and your comment. The BEC

Hi Betty, thanks for being such a fan, also thank you for you nice comment, and for watching. The BEC

Hi Lorna, that is a great question, the simple answer is that when using hot water to heat, most of the time the hot water is setting in the water heater for a long time, and it can develop a metal taste, so starting with cold water you avoid the metal taste, hope that makes sense to you. Thanks for your question and for watching. The BEC

Hi Stephen, I just tried the link and it went to the website, hopefully this problem was resolved, if you still can't connect, try going to the website "thebigeasychef.com", and click on "recipes" and that should take you there. Thanks for the heads up, and for watching. The BEC

Hi Maria, Yes, in your world it does, thanks for your comment and for watching. The BEC

great recipe!

Hi Maria, Thanks for your nice comment and for watching. The BEC

Hi Shomel, Capers should work fine in place of the olives, they will add a new salty tastes as do the olives. Good luck, and let me know how it turns out for you. The BEC

Hi gjax57, you can just leave out the olives, and you should be just fine, thanks for your question, and watching. Be safe out there, The BEC

@@thebigeasychef Hi thank you for your reply :)

@@gjax57 You are welcome ; - )

Hi Dawn, yes you are correct, and trust me the celery crunch is still there, just smaller size. Thanks for your comment, and for watching. The BEC

Hi Mariposa, Thanks for your question, I use roasted peepers in a jar, you can find them at store, if they don't have them. You can roast your own, just place red bell peepers, on a long fork, roast them over a flame. Turn them often, and once they are roasted, allow the pepper to cool some, and then place in a plastic bag, this will make removing the skin easier. I hope this helped, if you need more information on how to roast a pepper, there are many videos on RU-vid. Thanks for your comment and for watching. The BEC

Hi Mike, I am not to sure as to what other macaroni salad video you are referring to? Let me know so I can figure it out. Thanks for your comment and for watching. Be safe, The BEC

Hi Mr Allan, thanks for your question, no sugar, the sweet pickle relish has enough sugar to keep the salad nice and sweet, you could add sugar if you find it not sweet enough, thanks again for your comment and for watching. The BEC

Hi Daphne, Thank you for the nice comment, and I am glad that you enjoyed the macaroni salad, it is one of my favorites, also thanks for watching. The BEC

Hi Margaret, yes I not a big fan of eggs in my mac salad, I do think the sweet relish brings a nice flavor to the salad, but you know what they say, to each his own, thanks for your comment and for watching. The BEC

Hi Doris, I have had macaroni salad with sugar added, it tastes ok, but with this recipe it is pretty sweet with the pickle relish, or I guess you could always add "Miracle Whip", thanks for your comment and for watching. The BEC

Hi Kimberly, nope no mustard, however if you think it needs mustard feel free to add some, and make it your own, thanks for your comment and for watching. The BEC

Hi Leila, I viewed your video, I have had this salad before, made a little different, I like the twist that you added to the salad, it should taste pretty darn good. I like your video, you did a great job, looking forward to more videos. Thanks for your comment and for watching. The BEC

thebigeasychef wow thank you so much!!

Hi Robert, to answer your question, it is how much are you going to eat in one setting, as with all foods moderation is important, thanks for your question and for watching. The BEC

Hi Ralph, I hear you loud and clear, however in my defense, you have to start cooking some where. When I first started cooking I barely knew how to boil water. If there had of been a step by step video, I could have learned to cook a lot faster. I don't consider myself to be a professional chef by no means, I just think "The Big Easy Chef", has a catchy title to it. I feel today people are too eager to give people the finger instead of a helping hand. Thanks for your comment and for watching even the boring parts. The BEC

@@thebigeasychef thank you for responding. Normally when I watch a recipe video- I am looking for something new or different than what I do. I hate saying this, (I assume)

That people are smart enough to cook macaroni, potatoes or rice first. Thanks again for responding. BTW I like the roasted pepper idea.

@@MrSanteeclaus Hi Ralph, thanks for getting it. Yes, the roasted peppers add a special touch. Thanks again, The BEC

Hi Hollie, You think you got me there, however back in the day, I chopped everything by hand, and I just figured that no one would be interested in the old day stuff, as I moved forward with new machines. Thanks for adding some humor to my day. The BEC

Hi Missy, Thanks for your comment, yes we all have different tastes for sure, hope you have a great recipe for your mac salad, thanks for watching. Be safe out there, The BEC

Hi Jamo The Great, yes you could add eggs then it would be your very own recipe, thanks for the comment and for watching. The BEC

Hi Ly, thanks for the heads up, net batch will be getting some beau monde is a good seasoning, I don't think a lot of people know about it or use it that often. Thanks again, and thanks for watching. Stay safe, The BEC

@@thebigeasychef you're so correct, I had no clue what it was just that it was something my nana used. Until she gave me her mac salad recipe, she uses it (she's southern and doesn't use measurements lol) total game changer. Her recipe is very similar to yours. I'll definitely be adding in roasted red peppers next time. Happy holidays chef!

@@lynpharr Hi Lyn, yes most people today just don't cook, that is the problem with prepared food, and fast food, and I don't think they care to learn. Let me know how you like the roasted red peppers in the salad. You too have some Happy holidays and be safe. The BEC

Hi momkrk49, Yes, some people prefer the pasta not rinsed, it is your choice to rinse or not to rinse, that is the question. Thanks for your comment and for watching. The BEC

Hi Zoey, yes I do get the irony, however in my defense, I didn't eat all of the salad, so if maybe you just eat a proper portion, then would that be healthy? Thanks for your comment , humor and for watching. The BEC

Hi Aunt Kitty, you can add eggs, maybe try some sliced eggs on top, make it your own recipe, most people that have had this mac salad never miss the eggs. Check again there is plenty of sweet relish, that it what makes it so tasty. Thanks for your comment and for watching. The BEC
