Instructions

  • Cook the Pasta:

  • Prepare the Hard-Boiled Eggs:
    • Boil the eggs by placing them in a saucepan, covering with water, and bringing to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Cool in ice water, peel, and chop.
  • Chop the Vegetables:
    • Dice the celery, finely chop the red onion, and chop the fresh dill or parsley.
  • Make the Dressing:
    • In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper.
  • Combine the Ingredients:
    • In a large bowl, combine the pasta, chopped eggs, celery, red onion, and fresh dill or parsley. Pour the dressing over the mixture and toss gently until coated.
  • Chill and Garnish:
    • Refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes. Before serving, sprinkle paprika on top for garnish.

Notes

  • Feel free to substitute the fresh dill with parsley if you prefer a milder herb flavor.
  • For extra creaminess, you can add more mayonnaise or a bit of sour cream.
