6 hard boiled eggs, chopped

1 or 2 cans sweet peas, drained

cheese of your choice*

1 cup or more mayonnaise

black pepper to taste

4 tablespoons sugar, optional

3 tablespoons white vinegar, optional

*Shredded cheese, cubed cheese or torn slices may be used in any variety of your choosing. I used about 2 cups of shredded fiesta blend cheese this time.

Cook macaroni in salted water until tender. Drain and immediately rinse in cold water to stop cooking and bring to room temperature. Drain well. In a large bowl, mix all ingredients and combine well. Cover with a tight fitting lid and refrigerate until serving time. Keep any leftovers refrigerated. 

The vinegar and sugar aren't included in the original recipe my sister Martha created, but I add it to mine sometimes for a little different flavor.
