Macaroni “Salad”

Original source: K-ruoka - Makaronisalaatti

Serves 4-6, 20 min

Simple and convenient macaroni salad recipe. I used to make 2 batches of this back to back when I worked in construction, since we didn’t always have a microwave or restaurant close by, or wanted to save a bit of money by not going to a restaurant each day. Stores well in a cooler until lunch break.

  • 200g ham
