Pasta and Eggs
  • 8 oz elbow macaroni Feel free to swap with your favorite pasta shape for a twist.
  • 6 hard-boiled eggs Chopped; the star of this dish!
Dressing
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise For creaminess; Greek yogurt works as a lighter substitute.

  • 1/2 tsp salt Adjust to your taste.
  • 1/4 tsp pepper Freshly ground for the best flavor.

Preparation
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the elbow macaroni and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool.

Mixing
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Stir until uniformly mixed.

Chilling & Serving
  1. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid, and let the salad chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour for the flavors to develop.
  2. Give the salad a good stir before serving, and enjoy!

Notes

This pasta salad is best served cold. If it seems dry after being refrigerated, just stir in a little more mayonnaise before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
