If you’re a lover of traditional macaroni salad you are going to want to give this jalapeno version a go! It’s chock full of spicy flavors and robust herbs. It is a wonderful complement to any meal.
Check out what my pals over at The Pioneer Woman had to say about this recipe:
“I’ve made this simple pasta salad for years and years, and have always loved the heck out of it. It’s zippy, flavorful, and fun, and is as delicious by itself as it is alongside grilled chicken, shrimp, or steaks. I made it recently on one of my Food Network episodes, and realized I’d never shared it on this here website o’ mine! It’s versatile, and you can add whatever other ingredients you want: diced avocado, chopped cilantro, chipotle (to the dressing), lime juice…or all the spices and seasonings you want.”
This jalapeno macaroni salad is definitely zippy! I love how flavorful it is and you will too! Serve it alongside any Mexican dinner such as tacos, tortillas, or casseroles. You can even enjoy it all by its lonesome as a light lunch.
