Pasta and Vegetables

Dressing

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta and Potatoes

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 7-8 minutes. In the same pot, add the diced potatoes and cook for an additional 10-12 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and set aside to cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the macaroni and potatoes are cooling, wash and peel the carrots. Grate the carrot and chop the celery stalk into small pieces. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Boil the Peas

    In a separate small pot, bring water to a boil. Add the green peas and cook for about 2-3 minutes until bright green. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.

Mixing

  1. 4

    Combine the Dressing

    In a large mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Whisk until smooth and well combined.

  2. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the cooled macaroni, potatoes, grated carrot, chopped celery, and peas to the bowl with the dressing. Gently fold everything together until all ingredients are well coated with the dressing.

Chilling and Serving

  1. 6

    Chill the Salad

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Once chilled, give the salad a gentle stir and serve it in a large bowl or individual portions. Enjoy!
