lynnie, I don't know if this will work for you, but it did for me. I always used to mix my mac salad while the mac was still slightly warm because I heard that it would more readily absorb the flavors of the other ingredients, but as you say, the mac always sucked up the mayo, like it just melted away.

So what I did was let the mac cool to room temp, but added all my other ingredients to the mayo so the mayo absorbed the flavors, then mixed it altogether when the mac was cool. It worked, and my mac salad is never dry anymore and it's still just as tasty as ever!

Do you still need a recipe?
