A sweet macaroni salad just like Grandma used to make. The dressing is a good basic macaroni salad dressing that you can use with your own macaroni salad recipe. You must refrigerate for at least 4 hours for all of the flavors to blend together.

2 cups elbow macaroni
¼ cup sweet relish
½ cup onion, finely chopped
