Have you ever lived in or visited Hawai’i? Do you know anyone from Hawai’i? If you answered “yes,” then you know how much we love our Hawaiian Style Mac Salad. I grew up in Hawai’i and adore macaroni salad, but I’m a macaroni salad snob and am not interested in anything but Hawaiian Macaroni Salad. Nothing else measures up. Not even close. If you’re new to Hawaii’s favorite food dishes, then you have to try this Hawaiian Macaroni Salad recipe.

The food in Hawai’i is the most amazing blend of the best dishes from many different cultures that have all been adopted into the local Hawaiian cuisine. One of the staples at any family party or cookout in Hawai’i is Hawaiian Style Mac Salad. It’s one of the many things I miss about Hawai’i.
