CUCUMBER TOMATO MACARONI SALAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine ALL ingredients; toss to coat (adding more mayo and/or salad dressing to taste).
• Cover; refrigerate overnight to blend flavors.
• Stir before serving.
• Note: If you don't want to include the cooked hard-boiled eggs in the salad, I sometimes cook up 6-7 (or how many you desire), and just cut them into four pieces, and just lay them on top evenly around a large bowl with the pasta salad, so people have the option of having them or not-- and it makes for a nice presentaion-- if you are adding them into the salad, then 2-3 chopped should be enough.
