1 (4-ounce) jar chopped pimentos, drained

In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, pickled relish, and salt and pepper, to taste. 

Add the dressing to the macaroni and toss to coat. 

Season with more salt and pepper, if needed. 

Cover and chill for 2 hours for the flavors to meld.
