This deviled egg pasta salad is the ultimate side dish for any bbq, picnic, or potluck! You can even serve this as a main course for dinner, cause it’s that good. Loaded with hard-boiled eggs, sweet relish, and creamy dijon mustard.

I absolutely love cold creamy pasta salads year-round but especially during those warmer months. Nothing beats a small serving of deviled egg pasta salad with a cold glass of classic lemonade. A perfect summer dish consists of Hawaiian sweet rolls, oven-baked bbq chicken, and pasta salad!

Ingredients

Boiled Eggs

Elbow Macaroni – feel free to use any type of short pasta you have on hand such as cavatappi, rotelle, rotini, shells, etc.

Mayo – I used Hellman’s but use your favorite brand.

Red Onion – shallots and white onions are fine substitutions.

Scallions aka green onions

Sweet Relish – this will add a nice sweet taste.

Vinegar

Dijon Mustard – I prefer creamy grainy dijon mustard but spicy hot mustard or regular yellow mustard works too.

Paprika

Salt and Pepper

Top Tips For The Perfect Deviled Egg Pasta Salad

Make sure the pasta is completely cold. If you use hot or warm pasta it will result in greasy dry pasta salad.
Add a splash of water and a couple of tbsp of extra mayo before serving.
Enjoy with hot sauce.
If you don’t have vinegar, use lemon juice or pickle juice.
Want to make it spicy? Add some cayenne pepper or diced jalapenos.
If you want some crunch, add some celery and diced red bell peppers.
Finely chop 2 eggs and leave the rest chunky.

Enjoy!
