 This      Recipe With Bacon Ranch Macaroni Salad  Nutrition Facts salad was ok, but I had to adjust the recipe. Using a full pound of macaroni, I had to almost double the ranch dressing. I used shredded cheese because that's what I had on hand I think I liked it better than I would have liked cubed. I also wish I had used miracle whip instead of mayo because it needed a little zing (I guess I could have added a little vinegar, but didn't think about it at the time). Good starter recipe and easily adjustable to your tastes
