 Macaroni Salad with Vegan Bacon What says summer better than macaroni salad? Combine the creamy tang of macaroni salad with the crispy umami of meatless bacon and you have a match made in heaven, perfect for a picnic, a gathering or even just for lunch. The bacon is not required but I think it does bring things to another level. Feel free to make your own vegan bacon or buy a package at the grocery store. This is best chilled together for at least an hour or two, though overnight is best for the flavors to combine.
