Cool elbow macaroni gets tossed with crisp celery, red bell pepper, and red onion, then coated in a tangy, mustard-spiked dressing sharpened with apple cider vinegar and a touch of sugar to balance it out. Dill pickle relish threads little pockets of briny crunch through every scoop, and a chill in the fridge lets all that dressing soak in until the pasta is cool, creamy, and completely craveable. A scatter of fresh parsley on top adds a little color and freshness right before serving. It's the kind of make-ahead side that's just as good scooped alongside a sandwich as it is eaten straight from the bowl, and it's an easy, satisfying pick for a vegan spread at any cookout or potluck.
