Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain; cool, 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 2
Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels; crumble. Set aside.
Step 3
Combine mayonnaise and coleslaw dressing in a large bowl until creamy; stir in macaroni, bacon, tomatoes, lettuce, and green onions until well combined.

1 bunch green onions, chopped
3 tomatoes, diced
2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
