I’m sharing a classic Amish macaroni salad recipe that’s full of flavor and rich in tradition. This creamy, sweet-and-tangy side dish is a staple at Pennsylvania Dutch gatherings, from church picnics to family reunions. Made with simple ingredients and a signature dressing, it’s a crowd-pleaser that’s stood the test of time. Join me in the kitchen as I walk you through how to make this beloved recipe from scratch—just like it’s been done for generations.

My mom used to make a cooked creamy dressing that we used on lettuce salad or coleslaw . Thank you for sharing 😊
He hasn’t touched the pizza yet so it must be delish.

More Sugar than my Brownie recipe.
3/4 cup of sugar? Yikes.
Gosh this looks so delicious! I am excited to try this recipe and thank you for sharing!
I hope you didn’t bake yesterday or today in MN! Heat index 107 here! All look delicious! Stay cool!
Thanks for sharing your recipe. Watching from Colorado Springs, Colorado.
One of my favorite all time recipes for macaroni salad! Scrumptious is an understatement! Thank you for sharing your recipe! Hoping all is well ! I bet you’re keeping busy with crops etc. I’m waiting for Jersey corn and tomatoes. That’s my canning busy season ❤
My grama was memonite
I love your recipes ❣️I can’t wait to make the macaroni salad.
I have never seen macaroni salad done this way. I’m going to try it. Thanks!
Yum! Looks great. Have a blessed day.
I have never made a cooked dressing for my mac salad. I can't wait to try your style!! It looked so yummy! I love dill pickle relish too, give a bit of zip to a sweeter sauce!❤
I recently saw this in an old Amish cookbook I was reading and wondered how it would turn out, I have made it with miracle whip but watching you make this makes me want to try it.
Thanks for the recipe, the macaroni salad looks delicious.
Thank you and God Bless 🕊🕯🇺🇸
Just live your videos AND macaroni salad. Thank you for sharing.
Ok, I think this is the salad my friend always made for work get togethers. We had a deal that she'd give me the leftovers and I'd give her my leftover cheesy sausage dip. Worked out great for us as we usually doubled our recipes for there would be leftovers! She always said it was because she cooked the sauce and i didn't believe her!
This looks so yummy. Can't wait to try it. Thank you for sharing.
Howard hit the nail on the head. Store bought Amish macaroni salad is not great. I am going to make this, but since it's just two of us, I will have to cut the recipe quite a bit. Thank you for sharing this.
That looks good!
Sounds good. I should show you the amish macaroni salad recipe I use. It's a no cook, dressing, but you put the hot macaroni in with the mayo sugar etc. So easy so good. Sharing recipes is fun
We love macaroni salad!! I just made some earlier today before I saw this video! Mine is a little different, so next time, I'm trying this! Looks delicious!
We are definitely going to be making this. Thank you for sharing
Thank You LeAnn. That salad does look delicious! 😋
