Deviled Egg Macaroni Salad

SERVES: 10

CHILL TIME: 1 Hr

COOK TIME: 7 Min

Here's another two-in-one recipe that'll leave everyone at the potluck asking for more. Our Deviled Egg Macaroni Salad takes two summer favorites, deviled eggs and macaroni salad, and puts 'em together to deliver one dish that has twice the flavor!

What You'll Need

1 pound elbow macaroni
6 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
1 cup chopped celery
3/4 cup sweet pickle relish, drained well
2 cups mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Paprika for sprinkling

What to Do

In a large pot of boiling water, cook macaroni 7 to 9 minutes, or just until tender. Drain, rinse, and let cool.
In a large bowl, combine macaroni with remaining ingredients except paprika; mix well. Sprinkle with paprika and cover.
Refrigerate 1 hour or until ready to serve.

Mr. Food Test Kitchen Tip!

We can't say for sure, but you may need to add a little more mayonnaise to moisten before serving.
Try our Bacon Lover's Deviled Eggs, our Buffalo-Style Deviled Eggs, or our Deviled Egg Dip for more of that signature deviled egg flavor.

I am not a likeer of sweet pickle relish so I think I will try dill relish in a small portion to see if it will go well. Same with tuna macaroni salad. Oh yes some green onions for that whiff of "it".

I'm a little confused as to what exactly makes this a deviled egg inspired macaroni salad. I've been making my macaroni salad like this all my life and deviled eggs is the last thing I'd think about while eating it. I do like onion in my macaroni salad so that's a must for me...and I'm thinking maybe if you were to actually make deviled eggs and then quarter them and toss them into the macaroni salad it may fit the title better.

I am sure it refers to all the ingredients for deviled eggs minus macaroni are used to make this salad.

I love deviled eggs and macaroni salad, so this will be a definite love in my kitchen. I always put hardboiled eggs in my potato salad, but I never thought to add it to macaroni salad. Thanks for a great idea for a summer side dish. I need some recipes to take to family picnics.

I made this but I was underwhelmed Just a bit to bland for my taste I came back to double check the recipe to see if I missed something as I copied it down I didn't However while reading it a second time it did inspire me to try something a bit different When I was a kid back in the late s s my mother made a hot sandwich called tunaburgers They were a tuna salad for sadwich mixture that included tuna chopped hard-cooked egg minced onion minced celery chopped black olives shredded cheese dressed with mayonnaise mustard This mixture was made into sandwiches on large hamburger buns Each sandwich was wrapped individually in foil baked in a oven for minutes Delicious the day they were made But they were just as delicious another day in our brown bag lunches or as a snack cold Mom liked to make them…Read More because they were fast economical - supper on the table in about minutes she would cook the eggs before going to work in the morning and it also saved time another morning while packing our lunches My sisters I never complained whether it was supper or lunch The only problem came when we hit adolescence - we'd raid the 'frige while doing homework eat sandwiches planned for lucnhes And that is how my sisters and I started packing our own lunches for school Any way this salad got me thinking about tunaburgers for some reason I went into the kitchen later decied to mix up a batch of the filling for supper Unfortunately the package of hamburger buns I thought was in my freezer was not - oops So I took a bit more inspiration from this so-so salad cooked up some macaroni turned my sandwich filling into a pasta salad I may never make my old tuna macaroni salad again So I rate this stars as a salad but stars as a kitchen inspiration

My Mamma made her Macaroni Salad a lot like this, except she used Yellow Mustard and chopped up dill pickles. She left out the onions because when we were little we disliked onions, but added them when we got older. I make my Macaroni Salad like my Mamma's, except I like to add dill pickle relish (if I can) and tomatoes, that was my Mother-In-Laws addition to her recipe.

Thank you for saying dill pickles will work well. I made a comment about if the relish would work. Now I know. Holiday picnic here I come.

My Mamma made her Macaroni Salad a lot like this, except she used French's Yellow Mustard and chopped up dill pickles. She left out the onions because when we were little we disliked onions, but added them when we got older. I make my Macaroni Salad like my Mamma's, except I like to add dill pickle relish (if I can) and tomatoes, that was my Mother-In-Laws addition to her recipe.

Hi there! This recipe serves 10. You can find the serving size to the right of each recipe's ingredients. :) Enjoy!

I would think if you are giving small spoonfuls, 6 to 8 or large spoonfulls would be 4 to 6. Or seconds for either.

I actually made this on accident....Added all of these ingredients, my friend recommended the eggs......but then I also added a half cup of sweet onion, 2 T sugar, balsamic vinegar ( about 1/6 c) a little less of some of the other ingredients with a little milk to leaven it out. Pickle bits and pickle juice. Miracle whip instead of mayo and in less amounts. then garnish with paprika. It tastes just like a deviled egg lol. Not bad.

I don't know what went wrong here, but this salad was bland, yet at the same time tasted like fish. The only change I made was omitting the celery, I can't stand celery. I know it wasn't my ingredients, they were all fresh. Well, since I couldn't bring myself to throw away such a huge bowl of food, I threw in all kinds of other things, and now it tastes pretty good. Not awesome, but pretty good. It took a lot of tweaking to make this edible. I gave it two stars because it was salvageable, otherwise that would have been one star.

You can use any shape of pasta. I used shells, as that is what I had.

Well it looks like the green chunks are the chopped celery it called for and that is elbow macaroni and it does call for hard boiled eggs.

(sigh)What are the green chunks? Relish? No onion or celery? That's also not elbow mac. I already put hard boiled eggs in my Macaroni Salad - doesn't every body?
