Grandma's Macaroni Salad

We've eaten this salad since we were kids and every few months I call Jen for the recipe. Now I won't have to anyMORE! :) Thanks Jen, thanks Grandma! This is the best go-to-lunch for three days straight. Ha!

Grandma's Macaroni Salad

Ingredients:

1 12 oz box of macaroni elbows
1 package of grapes
1 half block of cheddar cheese
1 or 2 1/2 thick slabs of ham from the deli
1/2 to 3/4 cups of Mayo
2 tbs of brown sugar

1. Cut the grapes in half
2. Boil the macaroni, drain and rinse with cool water
3. Cube the cheese
4. We like to pan cook the ham for a minute or two on each side and then cube it
5. Put all of the above in a large bowl.
6. Mix the mayo and brown sugar together and then mix all the ingredients together. Refrigerate and eat whenever you need to. Which I do. All the time.

 She at the whole thing. Well..... I helped. XOXO to Jen!
 PS We only had tiny grapes on hand so they didn't need slicing. :)
