How to make Puerto Rican Macaroni Salad?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Fill a large pot with cold water. Place it over high heat and bring it to a boil. TIP: Add chicken bouillon instead of salt to the pasta water to really bring this dish to the next level! Add the macaroni and stir well. Cook according to the package instructions. You can also boil the eggs together with the pasta or boil them separately. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the meantime, add the ingredients (listed in recipe below) for the dressing to a small bowl. My secret ingredient is the Italian dressing mix! I use the Good Seasons brand, it’s so good in salad dressing, macaroni salad, and ensalada de papa<\/a><\/strong>! Stir until well combined. Set aside. Finely dice the hard-boiled eggs, bell pepper, onion, tomato, ham, and olives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ham I like to use is Black Bear’s Classic Uncured Ham Steak. It’s free of nitrates and nitrites and tastes DELICIOUS! It’s good quality ham and I love to use it in my habichuelas guisadas<\/a><\/strong> (habichuelas guisadas) too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nWhen the pasta is done, drain and place in a large bowl. Add all of the ingredients along with the dressing and mix until well combined. Cover and refrigerate the macaroni salad until it’s ready to serve. Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
