That sounds interesting! DH is not a huge fan of macaroni salad, but will eat ANYTHING (and I mean anything) with steak sauce!

I think I'm going to try it out this weekend!

That sounds great. I just got done making Greek Pasta Salad and next week I"ll try out your recipe. I love making a large batch of pasta salad and eating it all week!

This sounds really good.

I have both sweet pickles and dill as well as dill relish & sweet relish. Can you please tell me which I should use in your recipe?

TIA

I prefer the sweet but I have used both...at different times that is

I love this that I normally cant wait for the "chill" period and have a bowl of it right after I mix it all together...

oh no

it doesn't have steak sauce in it..the montreal steak spice is a dry spice mix...I hope you can get it in the U.S. but I'm sure he could put steak sauce on it and enjoy it still

I hope you both enjoy it
