PIMENTO CHEESE MACARONI SALAD



Pimento Cheese Macaroni Salad image

This is inspired by a delicious and creamy pimento dip that my best friend makes whenever we do a weekend barbecue shindig. I decided to make a pasta salad version of that dish featuring elbow macaroni. The addition of diced red bell pepper adds a crunch of freshness that pairs perfectly with the creaminess of the ingredients. This fun and comforting salad is delicious warm or room temperature but can also be made in advance and served cold.

PIMENTO SALAD



Pimento Salad image

From the internet KESQ.com. This salad can be a little bit bland, it may be the pimentos, so you really have to work with the seasonings, including the paprika. The paprika goes in the salad, and on top if you like. Adjust to your own taste.

CUCUMBER-PIMENTO SALAD



Cucumber-Pimento Salad image

This recipe came from my mother-in law's neighbor, Chuck. We were visiting her in Wisconsin and Chuck brought this over one afternoon for us to enjoy with our dinner. It was so good that after dinner I knocked on his door and asked for the recipe -- which he was kind enough to share. My family calls this "The Pickle" because it reminds us of homemade bread and butter pickles, only better. :) Cooking time is actually cooling time in the fridge.
