Monkey Mama's Macaroni Salad

Ingredients

1lb. macaroni (prefer rotini or shells)
4oz. grated sharp cheddar cheese (prefer Kraft)
2 carrots, grated (or roughly 1-2 cups of shredded carrots)
4-6 hard boiled eggs, sliced
Miracle Whip dressing
Cataline dressing

Cook the macaroni and drain. Put the macaroni in a really big bowl--you'll need the room. Mix in the next three ingredients. I have no idea how much of the miracle whip or Catalina to use, just what looks good to you. If I had to make an estimate, I would say 1/4-1/2 cup of MW--the Catalina is up to you. I just squirt in enough so that it shows up pretty good but doesn't pool in the bottom of the bowl. This is good warm and cold. It could serve anywhere from 2-12, depending on appetite and what else you were eating. We like this as a main course.

Sounds good. Have you ever tried it with raisins? I've always liked salads with carrots and raisins in them (but don't like Waldorf, for some reason).

Love ya bunches!
