A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.


This macaroni salad features elbow pasta, chopped hard-cooked eggs, celery, and red bell pepper. A simple mix with creamy dressing and dill pickle relish offers a refreshing side for summer meals.


2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni pasta
3 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 small red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons dill pickle relish
2 cups creamy salad dressing (eg. Miracle Whip)
3 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
1/2 cup white sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons white vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon celery seed
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add macaroni, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until tender. Drain, and set aside to cool.
In a large bowl, stir together the eggs, onions, celery, red pepper, and relish.
In a small bowl, stir together the salad dressing, mustard, white sugar, vinegar, salt and celery seed. Pour over the vegetables, and stir in the macaroni until well blended. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour before serving.

I used Dreamfields pasta and substitued Duke's Light mayo for the Miracle whip. It turned out great and now works well with a diabetic eating plan!! Enjoy.
