Rita's Sweet Macaroni Salad with Sour Cream Recipe


This time of year brings outings, family gatherings and, of course, football. As I was planning what we would have during the halftime portion of the first Alabama football game, my son, Garrett, asked for Macaroni Salad. I could have bought a box of it, but why when I could make a larger bowl of it for the price of two cups plus a bit healthier. This was a twist when I added a bit of sweetness to it using brown sugar instead of regular sugar and then adding balsamic vinegar. It was super delicious. Cutting the calories allows for a bit of indulgence elsewhere so why add them into hidden places of elbow pasta...let's create a rockin' awesome salad:

Rita's Sweet Macaroni Salad with Sour Cream Recipe

1 16 ounce box gluten-free box macaroni elbow pasta
1 cup vegan mayo (love the taste if I have to use mayo)
1 cup fat-free sour cream (can use 2 cups if no mayo)
1 table spoon balsamic vinegar 
2 tablespoons brown sugar substitute 
1 cup celery, chopped finely
1/2 cup onion, chopped finely

Mix all together well. Put in the fridge for one hour and serve cold. 

Happy Football Season!
Go Teams!
