Ingredients
- 1 lb uncookedmacaroni noodles
- 2 cup real mayonnaise
- 2 carrots grated
- 5 tbsp pickle juice
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Fill a large pot with enough water to cover the noodles. Place it on the stovetop on medium-high heat and allow the water to come to a boil.
- Once boiling, add the noodles and cook until al dente, stirring occasionally so that the noodles don't stick (should take about 5 minutes)
- While the noodles cook, mix the topping in a large bowl: 2 cups mayonnaise, 2 grated carrots, 5 tbsp pickle juice, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, salt and pepper to taste.
- Once the noodles are cooked, drain the water and add the noodles to the large bowl with the sauce mixture.
- Stir to combine and place in the fridge for at least 4 hours. Chilling at least this long is necessary so that the noodle absorbs the sauce. Serve chilled.
