My mom's unusual salad has been popular with friends and family for many years. This salad calls for a lot of ingredients but is worth the effort. If possible, use pickle juice instead of the vinegar.

This is a basic at our house, and we have it two or three times a month. I love the french dressing flavor instead of blah macaroni.
