Ingredients

8 oz macaroni (elbow) pasta
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 medium cucumber
1 medium carrot
2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped

Method

1
Fill a medium pot with water, add a pinch of salt, and bring to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook for about 8 minutes until tender. Drain and rinse with cold water.
2
In a large bowl, mix together the sour cream, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to make the dressing.
3
Wash the cucumber and peel the carrot. Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds with a spoon, and chop it into small pieces. Grate the carrot using a box grater.
4
Add the chopped cucumber, grated carrot, and chopped dill to the dressing in the bowl.
5
Add the cooled macaroni to the bowl with the vegetables and dressing. Stir everything together until the pasta is well coated.
6
Chill the macaroni salad in the fridge for at least 10 minutes before serving. This lets the flavors mix together. Enjoy your tangy macaroni salad!
