Recently, I used this versatile meat to make this Filipino macaronisalad with chicken, a dish that is one of my favorites to have when I was growing up in the Philippines
1 cup raw macaroni pasta , cooked al dente. 9 ounces chicken tenders, boiled and diced or chopped into small pieces or diced. 1/3 cup mayonnaise ( this is a very small amount for this kind of dish, feel free to add more if you thinkthe salad is too dry or you can add a little milk instead).

No Filipino party or gathering is complete without chickenmacaroni and if I may say so myself, this version of mine is THE mother of all macaronisalads
I remember around Christmastime, or during my birthday, my lola would usually be found boiling potatoes or chicken breast or both to make a big batch of macaroni or potato salad
Oh the Holiday Season is still around the corner and it’s also the best time to share one of our favorite holiday recipes – macaronisalad with chunky chicken and luncheon meat bits
Great with grilled meats, chicken and fish. Its quite different than the usual macaronisalad. Cook the macaroni according to package directions in lightly salted water
To make MacaroniSalad I use elbow macaroni, carrots, celery, raisins, sweet ham, shredded chicken breast, pineapple tidbits, and of course, Lady’s Choice Mayonnaise to make it more tasty
Another thing I did was to veganize the shredded chicken. Compared to the Italian, Mediterranean, and other versions, Filipino MacaroniSalad is the sweeter and heartier counterpart
This macaronisalad is not like the ones you usually have where ingredients like chicken, raisins, pineapple, ham, etc are added, this Hawaiian version is quite simple but very specific in terms of preparation
I usually prepare my own sandwich fillings over the weekend and as I already went through the tub of cheese pineapple I made last Friday night, I cooked a whole chicken today to make chickensalad spread for the workdays ahead
