MEGA MACARONI SALAD
Made this yesterday for a fund-raising benefit tonight and while the recipe is still in my brain I thought I'd better post it so the next time I make a pailful of salad I remember the proportions. I mixed this in my 13 quart mixing bowl and then put it in a 3 gallon pail to transport to the benefit.

Steps:
- Boil macaroni in large kettle until tender. Remove from heat and drain in two colanders; rinse with cold running water until cool and drain well.
- While the macaroni is cooking, set the peas in a small colander and rinse with cold water to thaw and let drain.
- Peel and chop the eggs. I usually cook the eggs the day before I need them and then store in the fridge so they are easier to peel.
- Cube the cheese and set aside.
- Shred onion in mini food processor.
- Mix together the dressing ingredients and set in fridge to chill.
- Once the macaroni has cooled and is drained well, pour into 13 quart mixing bowl.
- Pour the dressing over and stir well.
- Stir in eggs, bacon pieces, peas and cheese.
- Cover bowl with foil and store in refrigerator over night.
- Check the salad the next morning and if it seems dry, add in more mayo/mustard combination (2 cups mayo and 2 tablespoons mustard mixed together). Put in pail and refrigerate until serving time.
