Summers is fast approaching us down here and we're wondering if anyone has a good Macaroni Salad recipe they'd like to post for us to try.
Thanks!

This isn't a macaroni salad but you could use macaroni if you want to. Its a really good summer pasta salad that sounds weird but it really does taste great.
Multicoloured Rotini (or whatever pasta you like) Kethcup Sugar Vinegar Vegetable Oil Worcestershire Sauce Broccoli Cauliflower Green Pepers (red and yellow pepers too if you like) Mushrooms
Boil the pasta until soft, drain with cold water. Mix 1 cup of kethchup, 1/2 cup of sugar, 2 tbsp of vinegar (or more if you'd like the sauce to be a bit more sour), 2 tbsp vegetable oil, 1 tsp worcestershire. Pour the mixture over the pasta ,add you broccoli, cauliflower, pepers and mushrooms and mix.
