How To Prepare
Combine the first 2 ingredients in a small bowl to make the Seasoning Mix.
Cook the macaroni according to package directions, rinse, drain, and set aside to cool. Place the mayonnaise, sour cream, and skim milk in a large bowl, and add the tamari and Seasoning Mix. Whip together until completely blended. Then add the cooled macaroni and all the remaining ingredients, and toss gently until well mixed.
Note: Tamari is a very rich, flavorful soy sauce, available in specialty markets and the international or ethnic food sections of many supermarkets. If you cannot find tamari where you shop, use any good quality soy sauce.
