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.

Amish Baked Oatmeal
This Amish-style baked oatmeal is great for a filling breakfast. I got this recipe from a bed and breakfast in an Amish community in Pennsylvania. My family is Pennsylvania Dutch, so we are out there almost every summer. Serve with fresh or canned peaches and a splash of milk or half-and-half.
