Deviled egg pasta salad is a yummy creamy hybrid of two classic dishes. Featuring the best flavors of both the must have appetizer and the best summer side dish, this recipe is must have for all your picnics, potlucks, and barbecues.

Being that we are such avid gardeners, it isn’t so surprising that we made the leap to having our own chickens a few years ago.

The whole endeavor has been remarkably easy, barring general maintenance and upkeep.

Nothing crazier than feeding and taking care of our dog and cat.

Except now I’ve got fresh eggs to show for it!

Which means I can make egg heavy dishes like this deviled egg pasta salad whenever I want!

And I’m so happy about it because really what’s better than farm fresh eggs in a creamy pasta dish with all the flavors of the classic appetizer in it?

Not much! That’s for sure!

Ingredients

To make this you’ll need:

  • Pasta– Penne pasta or another pasta like elbows, small shells, etc.
  • Mayonnaise– Not mayonnaise style dressing or Miracle Whip
  • Sour cream– Light sour cream
  • Hard boiled eggs– Roughly chopped
  • Vinegar– White distilled vinegar
  • Spices– Salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika
  • Relish– Dill pickle relish
  • Celery– Thinly sliced

How to Make

This deviled egg pasta salad is as easy to make as other pasta salads!

Just cook the pasta according to the package directions until it reaches al dente.

Once the pasta is done, drain the pasta and run under cold water until all the pasta is cool.

While the pasta cooks, make the dressing by whisking the mayo, sour cream, salt, pepper, paprika, vinegar, mustard, relish, and celery together in a large bowl  until evenly combined.

Then add the pasta to the bowl and gently toss it with the dressing to coat the pasta.

Fold the eggs into the pasta, cover, and refrigerate it for at least two hours or until the pasta salad is chilled.

Serve and enjoy!

Storing Leftovers

Store leftovers in an an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Tips and Tricks

  • Don’t forget to run your cooked pasta under cold water to stop it cooking. If you leave it to sit in the strainer without this step, it will continue cooking from residual heat turning mushy and also stick together in clumps.
  • You could use all mayo, but I prefer the mixture of mayo and sour cream for creaminess. If you’re looking to cut calories, you can use all sour cream or even Greek yogurt as a substitute.
  • While our recipe calls for longer pasta, you could use smaller shapes like shells, bowties, or elbows for more of a macaroni salad feel.
  • You could sub sweet relish for the dill pickle, and regular paprika for the smoked paprika. Use what you have on hand.

    In this recipe, one ingredient is “1 tbsp. vinegar” but the type of vinegar is not specified. Could I find out if you mean white vinegar, cider vinegar, rice wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar…or some other of the plethora of vinegar varieties? Or could it be that it is up to the “chef” to decide which vinegar to use? If that is the case, what is a novice cook (this would be me) supposed to do if they are not knowledgeable in the taste differences in vinegars?

      I meant white vinegar 🙂 In my experience, when it just says vinegar it usually means white- and if it’s different it’s specified.

    It looks to me like there is celery in this, but it doesn’t mention it in the ingredients??

      Not sure how it got omitted from the ingredient list, but you’re right! I use half a cup of thinly sliced, or diced, celery in this salad. It adds that ideal bit of crunch. I’ll update the recipe card to reflect it tomorrow.
