"If you’re looking for a quick easy macaroni salad recipe for a spring time brunch, BBQ, or picnic try this Easy Seafood Macaroni Salad. I originally made this for a fish fry party. This twist on a classic macaroni salad recipe uses a yogurt based mayonnaise, canned baby shrimp, fresh dill, and seafood seasoning along with diced celery and sweet bell pepper. It can easily be made in less than 30 minutes. By using gluten free pasta, you can make this for guests or family members who have to avoid gluten. Or make it more wholesome by using whole wheat pasta."
