6 servings
- 12 oz elbow macaroni
Chef's tipCook gluten-free pasta to al dente — it overcooks quickly. - 1 tsp salt, plus more for pasta water
- ¾ cup vegan mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp yellow mustard
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp granulated sugar
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Coconut sugar has a mild caramel flavor, and baked goods come out a little darker and slightly less sweet. - ¼ tsp black pepper
- 3 stalks celery, finely diced
- ½ cup red bell pepper, finely diced
- ⅓ cup red onion, finely diced
- ¼ cup dill pickle relish
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add the elbow macaroni and cook according to package directions until tender, about 8–9 minutes. Drain in a colander and rinse under cold running water until the pasta is completely cool.
