Make this Macaroni Salad in advance!

Ingredients:
- 1 lb pasta
- 2-3 stalks celery, diced small
- 2 -3 carrots, diced small
- 2 ears of corn, cooked
- 1 bell pepper, small diced
- ¼ cup green onion, diced small
- 1 ½ cups Byler’s Last of the Garden
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- ½ cup Byler’s Bread and Butter Relish
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional:
  1. 4 hard-boiled eggs, sliced
  2. 1 cup chickpeas
- Garnish (optional):
  - Green onions, sliced
  - Fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions:
- Start by boiling your water for pasta.
- While you do that, make your sauce for the macaroni salad.
- If using hard-boiled eggs and/or corn, prepare as needed.
- In a food processor, add Byler’s Last of the Garden and pulse to break up the pieces of veggies.
- Add yogurt, salt and pepper and pulse to combine.
- Check your water to see if it is ready to add your pasta to cook.
- *TIP* Cook the pasta al dente. I recommend 2-3 minutes less than the time on the package. I like to use fusilli or farfalle, but any smaller pasta will work!
- Set a timer for your pasta to ensure you don’t over cook it.
- As your pasta boils, chop your vegetables. They should all be in small, even pieces, about 1/4 inch in diameter.
- Add your vegetables to your bowl.
- Drain your pasta and add on top of the veggies in the bowl.
- Carefully pour your dressing over top of the ingredients.
- Toss to mix.
- Cover and refrigerate until you are ready to serve.
- Before serving, garnish with green onion and/or parsley.
- Make this pasta ahead of time – it actually tastes even better on the second or third day when all of the flavors have combined!
