Macaroni salad can go one of two ways: it can be a heavy, bland side dish or a creamy, addicting one. This recipe, stuffed with ham and cheese and flavored with sweet relish, definitely falls under the second category.

This salad was easy to make and very tasty. I took it to a church potluck. People overlooked the store bought salads to eat mine.
