Deviled Egg Pasta Salad
Description
The Deviled Egg Pasta Salad combines cooked elbow macaroni with chopped hard-boiled eggs to create a dish inspired by deviled eggs. The dressing is made smooth by whisking together the yolks of the eggs with plain Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and smoked paprika, providing a tangy and spiced flavor profile.
Once the pasta is cooled, it is mixed with the dressing, finely diced red onion and sliced green onions, and the chopped egg whites. This mixture results in a creamy, flavorful pasta salad with layers of texture from the soft pasta, creamy sauce, and crisp onions.
Served chilled, this salad works well as a side dish for picnics, barbecues, or casual meals. Adjusting the salt allows tailoring the taste to preference. The salad can be served immediately or refrigerated to let flavors meld further.
