Grandma Jane is well known for her signature dishes. Her potato salad always tops the list as everyone's favorite but her pasta salad comes in at a close second.
Ingredients
- 1lb short pasta
- 1/2 onion, finely diced
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 2 stalks celery, finely diced
- 1/2lb sharp cheddar cheese, cubed
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp parsley flakes
- Salt and pepper to taste
Procedure
Cook the pasta according to the directions, drain and refrigerate until cool. You can run the pasta under cold water to speed up the cooling process. Grandma usually uses elbow macaroni but we had 2 half boxes of shells and twisted elbow macaroni so we used that this time.
Once the pasta is cool, add the onions, green peppers, celery, cheese and parsley flakes.
Mix thoroughly.
Watch out for sneaky fingers who steal bites!
Stir in mayonnaise. Grandma only uses Kraft Mayonnaise because it is extra white in color but any brand will work. Season with salt and pepper to taste and enjoy!

Happy Cooking!
