Thanks! Still having trouble finding what I'm looking for.. just looking for a simple maynaise based recipe, easy to serve cold, that I can make the night before. The ones they sell at deli/take out type places.
Thanks again!
I did a search but wasn't so successful for the type of recipe I'm looking for.

Yummy deli-style Macaroni Salad from The 2nd Rye Deli cook book

1 pound elbow macaroni
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cup Hellmann's mayonnaise ( I don't touch mayo, we use miracle whip and it works )
3/8 cup white vinegar
3 Tablespoons Sugar
4 Tablespoons finely grated onion
1/4 cup chopped green pepper, pieces about 1/4 inch
1/3 cup grated carrot
1 teaspoon deli-style mustard
1/2 teaspoon white pepper ( black works too if you don't have white )
Dried chives ( I usually do w/o b/c I don't have on hand or use fresh )

cook noodles, mix all other ingredients, stir everything, serve well chilled
