Mom’s Macaroni Salad
1344
I am not typically a fan of macaroni salad.. unless it is my Mom’s. I know the picture above shows this salad made with the little shells.. macaroni or shells, it all tastes the same.

I feel like every time we had it, there were different mix-ins depending on what she had on hand. A few things were always the same though: cheese, ham, and peas.
