Preparation
  1. Begin by cooking the pasta according to package instructions. Drain and allow it to cool completely.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the chopped hard-boiled eggs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and paprika. Stir gently until they form a creamy blend.
  3. Add the cooled pasta, celery, red onion, and chopped parsley. Mix everything until well combined.

For a healthier option, add chopped bell peppers or spinach, or replace half of the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt for extra protein. Avoid overcooking the pasta and using low-fat mayonnaise.
