- 8 ounces macaroni, uncooked
- 1/2 cup celery
- 1/4 cup red onion
- 1/4 cup red bell pepper
- 1/2 tablespoon jalapeno pepper
- 3/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Preparation
- Cook pasta according to package directions. Transfer to colander and rinse under cold water; drain and set aside.

- In a large bowl, combine remaining ingredients until well blended. Add cooled pasta and toss to coat.

Helpful hints

- Wear gloves when mincing raw hot peppers.
- Low-fat mayonnaise may be substituted to reduce fat to 5 grams per serving. Sodium will be higher, so decrease or omit salt.
