We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Peel the eggs and cut them in half to remove the egg yolks. Transfer all the egg yolks to a bowl, and chop up the egg whites and set aside.

  • Step 2: Cook the macaroni according to the package instructions. Drain the water and rinse with cold water. I do this to cool the pasta a bit. Set aside.

  • Step 3: Mash up the egg yolks with a fork, then season with salt and pepper. Add more salt and pepper as per your taste. Mix together the mayo and French dressing together until well combined. Add the mustard and mayonnaise/dressing mix to the egg yolks and stir everything together until well combined.

  • Step 4: Add the macaroni to a large bowl, then add the egg yolk mixture, the chopped egg whites, pickles, onion, celery, olives and paprika. Stir well until combined. Taste for seasoning and adjust as necessary.

  • Step 5: Garnish with more paprika and chives.
