My family loves this salad! It is definitely a family tradition. This is the 1st time I have placed raspberries on top. We did it for the picture for some color. They did taste good too!
Enjoy!!
What is ACINI macaroni?
ReplyDeleteIt is tiny little macaroni balls. You find it in the macaroni section of your grocery store. However, this does not taste like a macaroni salad. It is a very refreshing fruit salad. This is my favorite salad in the whole world!! Acini is kind of a specialty so if you can't see it right off ask your store manager. It is worth finding!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!
