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 to 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 from the back of the box of Creamettes macaroni. This recipe – minus the peas – is what he used. So good!

I could eat the whole tray of deviled eggs when I make them, but I am nice and share. Too bad I didn’t think of combining the two recipes long before now as they would be such a hit at family get togethers and BBQs.

This week I will be sharing these recipes:

  • Grilled Pineapple with Maple Syrup Glaze (Monday’s recipe)
  • Deviled Egg Pasta Salad (that’s todays recipe)
  • Slow Cooker BBQ Green Beans with Bacon (Wednesday’s recipe)
  • Grilled Ham Steak with Honey Mustard (Thursday’s recipe)
  • Glaze Grilled Strawberry Shortcake (Friday’s recipe)
This pasta salad is a must for your next cookout!

How to Make Hard Boiled Eggs

This recipes uses 6 hard boiled eggs and while making them isn’t hard, there are a couple of tips I stand by.

  • 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 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 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 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 yellow yolks, just as you would if you were making deviled eggs. Place the yellow yolks in a large bowl and mash them with a fork.

Cook the macaroni according to package directions, drain and rinse with cool water. Let drain. In the bowl with the mashed yellow yolks add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, vinegar, garlic, salt, paprika, and pepper; mix well.

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