This is for Cathy Z in Ohio 5/14/09 newsletter. This recipe for
macaroni potato salad does not have bacon in it, but you could
easily add it. It does have the other ingredients that you
mentioned. I hope this helps you.

Macaroni Potato Salad
Salad Ingredients:
5 large potatoes
1 cup shell macaroni-dry
2 carrots, shredded
2 stalks of celery, finely chopped
2 green onions, finely chopped
3 hard boiled eggs, coarsely chopped
3 sweet pickles, coarsely chopped
1 cup frozen peas, lightly cooked
Salt and pepper to taste
Dressing Ingredients:
1-1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup Italian dressing
2 tablespoon of pickle juice
1 teaspoon of mustard
A bit of dill weed (optional)
Cook potatoes the night before, drain thoroughly, and chill in the
refrigerator overnight. The next day, cut the potatoes into cubes
(don't do it when they are still warm, or they will crumble). Cook
the macaroni according to the package directions, and rinse it in
cold water to cool it and prevent it from sticking together. Drain
thoroughly to remove all the water. Mix the dressing in a small bowl
and set aside. Gently mix the potatoes and macaroni with the
remaining ingredients, and stir in the dressing.
