If you’ve been to Hawaii and had Macaroni Salad there (usually referred to as Mac Salad), then you’ve probably been craving it ever since. If you haven’t been and haven’t had it, well then, you’ll just have to trust me that you absolutely need to make it. It’s macaroni salad, yes, but it’s macaroni salad that’s creamy as all get out with the perfect amount of sweetness and tang. It’s a plate lunch staple, sure, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be a staple at your potlucks and parties too.

- 2 cups half and half
