Salad Part
- 3 Cups Water Bring to boil

- 1 Teaspoon Olive Oil

Instructions
Salad Part
-
Add water to a large saucepan and bring to a full boil.
-
Once water is fully boiling add the elbow noodles and olive oil to the saucepan. (olive oil helps the noodles from sticking)
-
Cook until done. (I normally just taste a noodle to see if it's cooked all the way)
-
Drain the water from the noodles and place the noodles into a large bowl
-
Into the large bowl with the noodles add the finely diced sweet onion, the diced celery, green and red peppers, the diced ham, and the cubed cheddar cheese.
-
Set bowl aside
For the Dressing
-
In a smaller bowl combine the Miracle Whip, mustard, sugar and milk until sugar is dissolved.
-
Pour dressing mixture onto the salad mixture.
-
Fold all the ingredients together, making sure to have a nice coating on everything
-
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until Macaroni Salad is cool.
