I was stationed in Hawaii. I loved the Hawaiian macaroni salad. Can't find a recipe. Can anyone help.?

Answer 2

I found an interesting site about Hawaiian culture and it had plenty of recipes, including one like you're talking about. Unfortunately I can't find that site right now but if you google it, it might come up. It has a green background page and a lot of material on the Hawaiian language. Hope that helps, sorry I couldn't be more specific.

Answer 3

It's made the same as your traditional macaroni salad except you add a bit of shredded coconut, a tablespoon or so of pineapple juice, use rock salt to taste... and finally... here's the secret to it all... add diced SPAM!!!
