CHICKEN MACARONI SALAD with PINEAPPLE

10/1/2020

This recipe of Chicken Macaroni Salad is very special for me because this is my moms'. When I first created my blog for this recipe in 2014, and created a video last year, it became one of my most viewed recipe on my Facebook cooking page (which is now missing in action). Just so you know, instead of waiting for it to come back, just a few months ago. I created a new Facebook Page so I can continue sharing my recipes to my followers. Having said, that, I wrote this new blog so that I can also include a video remake of this delicious salad. I didn't change a bit from my old blog just this new format and new photos.

Anyway, I can't count how many of my followers tried this and all I get is a good feedback. ​Many recipes out there just uses mayonnaise. This one has added table cream that makes it so delicious! Also pineapple and cheddar cheese is also mixed in here with a small amount of condensed milk. Those ingredients gives a perfect balance of taste for this Macaroni Salad. It's the sweetness, creaminess and a little of bit of salty and sour taste is the secret so make sure not to omit or substitute any of the ingredients on this recipe. 
But, I always get questions about Table Cream. What is it? ​

​Table cream is a type of cream that has a different fat content and texture compared to other creams like heavy cream, all purpose cream, etc. that is normally used on salads and fruits. I used Nestle Table Cream. In the Philippines it is available in many grocery stores. If you are here in the US, just to let you know that Walmart carries this brand as well. 
Making this is very simple, just prepare the chicken breast by boiling and shredding into fine strands. Then cook the macaroni pasta. Then combine them all in a large bowl. That's it :) Give this recipe a try and let me know what you think by leaving a comment below. Enjoy!

Hmmm... it will be a bit grainy if you use sugar.
