What happens when you combine the classic deviled egg with summer’s popular pasta salad? You get the best of both dishes in one creamy delicious salad. Deviled Egg Pasta Salad is such a fun recipe to make and enjoy at your next summer get-together.

Summer BBQ season is upon us and this week the #FestiveFoodies Facebook group is celebrating #BBQWeek with tons of new recipes to share with you. Be sure to check out all of the recipes this week, which will all appear at the end of my posts each day.

It’s no secret that I love deviled eggs. I also love pasta salads like this one which combines coleslaw with macaroni salad. Growing up, my dad would make a macaroni salad recipe from the back of the box of Creamettes macaroni. This recipe – minus the peas – is what he used. So good!

Such a great way to combine two classic recipes.

Instructions

How to Make Hard Boiled Eggs

This recipe uses 6 hard-boiled eggs and while making them isn’t hard, there are a couple of tips I stand by. I use this method when I make egg salad, too.

  • Fill up a large saucepan halfway with water and gently add the eggs. Cover the eggs with at least an inch of water. Add a tsp of white vinegar to the water (this will help contain egg whites from leaking out if any of the shells crack while cooking).
  • Bring the water to a rolling boil. Cover, and remove from heat. Let sit covered for 15 minutes.
  • Drain hot water from the pan and run cold water over the eggs. Add some ice to help in the cooling process. It doesn’t hurt to shake the pan with the ice and eggs in it and let the shells crack a bit. This will just help them to peel easier. Let sit in the cool water for a few minutes, changing the water if necessary to keep it cool.
  • Peel the eggs under cool running water.

Making the pasta salad

Once you have your eggs cooked, slice them in half lengthwise and scoop out the egg yolks, just as you would if you were making deviled eggs. Place the yellow yolks in a large mixing bowl and mash them with a fork.

In the large bowl with the mashed yellow yolks add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, vinegar, garlic, salt, paprika, and pepper; mix well.

Add the cooked pasta to the bowl with the yolk mixture and stir with a wooden spoon to coat the macaroni. Then add the red onion, green onion, celery, bacon pieces, and egg whites. Stir to combine.

Chill in an airtight container if not serving immediately. Garnish with more green onion and bacon, if desired.
