When you're wondering how much macaroni salad to make for 20, turn to this basic and super easy macaroni salad that I make for family gatherings. I make mine with dill relish but you could change it if you prefer the sweet. Looks good and tastes even better the next day. The more you make it, the quicker you will get. Can be served right away, or make it ahead of time and keep it in the fridge.

Middle Eastern Kibbeh
This Middle Eastern Kibbeh recipe is inspired by a dish traditionally made with lamb, but beef is acceptable, too. I prefer it shaped into patties and fried, but it's often baked in restaurants. Serve kibbeh with tahini, a sesame seed paste.
