Macaroni Salad
Normally, summertime food is casual, nothing too fancy. There aren’t many Coq au Vin 🐓 or Beef Wellington that are served during the warmer months of the year. The food is much more relaxed, and so are the side dishes that go along with them…
Although there’s nothing fancy about the sides, they’re certainly always welcome.
