Macaroni Coleslaw for a Crowd

Looking for a great salad to share at your next barbecue or family get together? Try this easy macaroni coleslaw for a crowd!

It is unbelieveable that is it May already!  Not long from now it will be Memorial Day weekend and I know that everyone is looking for an awesome salad to add to their barbecue menu.  This is a fantastic potluck salad.  I’ve combined to classic salads, macaroni salad and coleslaw.  You’ll love the flavor.  You’ll love how beautifully colorful it is.  And best of all this makes enough for a crowd!

While the pasta boils, prepare the dressing and get all the vegetables sliced, chopped and ready.

Once the pasta is done, drain, and cool with cold water until it is completely cooled.  Stir the vegetables and pasta together.

Pour the dressing over and mix well.  Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.  I like to give this a good stir after it has been in the fridge for a couple of hours just to make sure the dressing is mixed in really well.
