Finally, here is my recipe for my macaroni salad last Christmas.  I knew this recipe from my mom who usually prepares this every Christmas and New Year.  There are regular and sweet version of the macaroni salad but my family prefers the regular one.

So here goes the ingredients:
1.  1 kilo elbow macaroni
2.  2 pieces chicken breast
3.  4 big onions, chopped
4.  2 big carrots, chopped
5.  4 big packs of mayonnaise
6.  salt and pepper
7.  chopped celery
8.  raisins
9.  pineapple and its syrup
10.  water
11.  oil
12. cheddar cheese in small cubes

Steps:
1.  Put to boil the chicken in a water until it cooks.  Shred the cooked chicken in one inch length.

2.  In a separate caserole, boil the elbow macaroni in water, salt and oil.  Mix occasionally until it is ready.

3.  In a big container, mix the cooked elbow macaroni, mayonnaise, onions, carrots, celery, chicken, raisins, cheese and pineapple. Make sure to mix all ingredients properly.

4.  Add some salt and pepper according to your taste.

5.  Put the macaroni salad in the ref overnight.  Serve it chilled.

It looks easy to do, but chopping the onions, celery and carrots are very hard to do.  And you should be prepared to mix all ingredients.  I suggest that you separate the macaroni in two big containers to make it easier to mix.
