While browsing for a pasta salad recipe, I found Inez Willenborg's Homestyle Macaroni Salad. It sounded good, but I didn't have all the ingredients, so I improvised and came up with this one. We absolutely loved it. Thank you, Inez, for the recipe that was the inspiration for this winner.
Ingredients:
8 ounces bow tie pasta (or pasta of your choice)
2 hardboiled egg, chopped
1/2 cup celery, chopped fine
1/4 cup fresh salsa (homemade or the refrigerated variety sold in the produce section)
2 scallions, chopped
1/4 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup miracle whip (or mayonnaise)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
Directions:
1. Cook pasta in salted boiling water until tender.
2. Drain pasta and rinse with cold water.
3. Combine all remaining ingredients in a large bowl.
4. Add pasta and stir until the pasta is coated.
5. Refrigerate at least an hour before serving.
