The 4th of July is all about celebrating this wonderful country, spending time with family and friends, and cooking out! This recipe is so simple, but so classic and delicious. The recipe is from Aaron McCargo Jr. aka "Big Daddy" from the Food Network and winner a while back of Next Food Network Star. His website:http://www.aaronmccargo.com/. I'm a big fan and really love his recipes and this is my absolute favorite! The recipe is huge and can feed a big crowd- here I have cut the recipe in half.
Chop a small onion and two stalks of celery finely. Next mix up the sauce: 1 1/2 cups of mayo (I use light), a good squirt of sweet relish to taste, a few dashes each of hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce. The recipe doesn't call for it, but I add some dry chopped dill. I like to mix the sauce right in my storage container- the pasta soaks up all of the sauce and there is one less bowl to clean. 
Combine the macaroni with the sauce and then chop 6 hard boiled eggs and gently fold in. My secrets for this job are my "food mover" and my awesome pairing knife courtesy of my parents from Amish country.
Season with S & P to taste and chill in the fridge so the flavors get all yummy and combined. Sprinkle with a little paprika for color. Enjoy!
