Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 lb uncooked elbow macaroni
  • 2 cups Jarlsberg cheese shredded
  • 1.5 cups mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup red onion diced
  • 1/4 cup yellow bell pepper diced
  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper diced
  • 1/4 cup carrot shredded & diced
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp coarse sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

  • In a large pot, cook macaroni according to package directions. 
    1/2 lb uncooked elbow macaroni
  • While macaroni is cooking, in a large bowl, mix cheese, 1 cup mayo and remaining ingredients together 
    2 cups Jarlsberg cheese, 1.5 cups mayonnaise, 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 cup red onion, 1/4 cup yellow bell pepper, 1/4 cup red bell pepper, 1/4 cup carrot, 1 tsp lemon juice, 1 tsp coarse sea salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • When pasta is done, drain pasta and rinse with cold water to cool down.
  • Stir macaroni into large mixing bowl with cheese & mayo mixture. 
  • Cover and refrigerate (at least 3-4 hours) until ready to serve. (This helps the flavors all meld together!)
  • Pasta salad absorbs liquid so before serving stir in additional 1/2 cup of mayonnaise and stir to desired level of creaminess and taste preference.
    1.5 cups mayonnaise
  • Serve in small bowls with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or fresh dill to add a little brightness!
