Filipino Style Chicken Macaroni

 

Filipino love everything sweet and this affinity extends to our food. Take our Filipino style spaghetti; we add sugar in it. Our famous Pork Adobo has 1/4 cup of brown sugar in it too. And let's not talk about Filipino desserts... It seems like we grab each opportunity to add sweetness on everything. And this Filipino Style salad was not an exemption.

This Chicken Macaroni salad is one of those dishes we learned from the West, but has been adapted to give our Filipino twist on it. Instead of more of the sour  side, the cream is more on the sweeter side. We added heavy cream and condensed milk to make it sweeter, and we added pineapple and raisins too. This Filipino Style Chicken Macaroni Salad is sweet, but once you take  bite of the pickle and pineapple, there is burst of sourness come through which surprises your taste buds.

Often serve on Holidays, like Christmas, you can make this anytime of the year as your lunch and dinner.

I am not a macaroni eater but this this is an exception and this Velveeta Cheese Burger Mac and Cheese which is getting famous in Pinterest is also my fav. I like its simplicity and I love that the taste is not overpowering.
