How to Make Deli Mac Salad
- Heat vinegar and sugar on stove until sugar is dissolved; cool.
- Toss vinegar sugar mixture with macaroni. Refrigerate in freezer bags for several hours to allow it to set.
*NOTE* After soaking, it's possible for there to be some excess sugar/vinegar mixture, if you find it to be very soupy you can toss it into a colander for a minute to drain some off. - Toss macaroni with peppers and celery seed. Add mayo to taste. Yummmo!
