This recipe makes a large amount, sufficient to serve 12-15. It is always well-received when I take it to covered dish meals at church. While it is not for those on low-carb diets, it is acceptable for low fat diets.

HEAVENLY PASTA SALAD

This is a great recipe for macaroni/pasta salad that we have ever eaten (and I don't like pasta salad). My mother-in-law is famous for macaroni salad and switched to this recipe when I took it to her house for dinner! This is one you really must try!

Time 1h

Yield 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

16 ounces pasta shells (I use the small ones)
1/2 lb grape tomatoes (optional)
3 medium carrots, grated
1 medium green sweet pepper, finely diced
1 medium sweet red pepper, finely diced
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups Miracle Whip
1/2 cup sugar (I never add this because it makes it too sweet)
1/4 cup white vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

Cook pasta until bite tender. Rinse and drain. Let cool. Add remaining ingredients to pasta. Mix dressing ingredients in a separate bowl. Add to pasta mixture.
Refrigerate a couple hours before serving. My M-I-L only puts the red and green peppers in hers. I like the carrots and tomatoes added in as well.
