Creamy Macaroni Salad

This creamy pasta salad recipe is easy and a huge hit at every function I take it to. I've looked all over for a great macaroni salad, and this is it! I like my salads to have a lot of creamy dressing, so I always make an extra half-batch of the dressing and add it as necessary to add more moisture since the pasta soaks up so much sauce.
