Fort Bragg Macaroni Salad

When Christian was at Fort Bragg for basic training, we went to his graduation. At this event (a whole weekend of fun!), we bought a cookbook of recipes from the families of service members on that base. This is one of those recipes that was a hit with our family too. It looks weird...but is strangely good!! >>>>>>>SWEET MACARONI SALAD<<<<<<< *******1 package (16 ounces) elbow macaroni *******4 medium carrots, shredded *******1 large green pepper, chopped *******1 medium red onion, chopped *******2 cups mayonnaise (i use 1 C and 1C yogurt) *******1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk (fat-free sweetened condensed milk has the same calories and tastes like crap) *******1 cup cider vinegar (can use white vinegar but not balsamic or red wine varieties!) *******1/2 cup sugar *******1 teaspoon salt *******1/2 teaspoon pepper *>*>*>*Cook macaroni according to package directions. Drain and rinse in cold water; drain well. In a large bowl, combine macaroni and vegetables. Whisk together remaining ingredients until smooth and sugar is dissolved; stir into macaroni mixture. Refrigerate, covered, overnight.
