8 oz uncooked macaroni, elbow
1/8 tsp table salt, or to taste (for cooking pasta)
1/2 cup reduced-calorie mayonnaise
1 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 cup celery, chopped
1/3 cup red onion(s), finely chopped
2 Tbsp parsley, fresh, chopped
1/4 tsp table salt, or to taste
1/8 tsp black pepper, freshly ground, or to taste
Cook macaroni in salted water according to package directions; drain and transfer to a large bowl.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard and garlic powder; stir mixture into cooked macaroni. Fold in celery, onion and parsley; season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve warm or chilled. Yields about 2/3 cup per serving
It was so tasty that I took it to the bar for my friends to enjoy, and had it as a side dish with these cheese burgers I made last night. (I'll talk about those in a sec.) I have to admit even Daniel (my 15 year old stepson) ate it all up. :)
Now, the cheeseburgers I made, were FANTASTIC. I took 1 pound of 4% fat ground beef and mixed in 1.5 tablespoons of Gorgonzola cheese. I formed them into patties and put it on our george foreman grill for 7 minutes, threw them on sarah lee whole grain white buns with red onion and Dijon mustard. The total for that was a 6.5 points. 2 for the bun 3.5 for the patty, and 1 for the cheese! Very tasty and filling. ( I forgot to take pictures of it though. ) :(
