Great-Grandma Maida Dixon made this salad for family gatherings. I think of her every time I make. It's sooo good. It needs to be placed in the refrigerator to allow the flavors to meld. It really is worth the wait.

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.

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces elbow macaroni
4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup canned pimento peppers, diced
1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
2 tablespoon chives, fresh or freeze-dried
1 tablespoon smoked paprika, plus more for sprinkling
1 clove garlic, minced
Dash hot sauce (use your favorite)
1 red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and diced

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted boiling water to a rolling boil. Add the macaroni and cook until al dente, about 1 minute less than package directions suggest.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix the cream cheese, mayonnaise, pimento peppers, Cheddar, chives, smoked paprika, garlic, hot sauce and a pinch of salt and black pepper together until thoroughly combined.
  • Transfer the cooked macaroni directly to the large bowl with the cheese mixture and mix until everything is thoroughly combined. Fold in the red bell pepper and garnish with more smoked paprika. Serve immediately or chill in the fridge until ready to serve.

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.
