This Deviled Egg Macaroni Salad is creamy and loaded with hard boiled eggs. Quick and delicious and the perfect addition to any meal.
Everyone seems to love this Deviled Egg Macaroni Salad, I always get tons of compliments on it when I make it. Its a super easy recipe to make with just a few simple ingredients, packed with deviled eggs and combined with creamy pasta…yummy!
As a child growing up my mom had been making a version of this for all our barbecues or summer gatherings that we had. I decided to put a little twist on it and make it my own, and it never ever disappoints.
Nothing says summer more than a classic macaroni salad. Although, I crave this recipe even in the winter, and believe you me I indulge in that craving and have no shame at all. It’s always more delicious after a couple hours and the flavors can mesh together. After making this you’ll never buy macaroni salad from the deli again…

June 25, 2019 at 12:51 amThis looks delicious! How long will this keep, prepared? If I were to make it on a Tuesday evening, to serve on a Friday, is that too long? Trying to figure out how much I can prepare for a camping trip.

June 25, 2019 at 4:21 amMaking it a couple days prior is fine. You may need to add a tablespoon or two of mayonnaise to freshen it up right before serving. Hope this helps Lindsey 🙂

June 5, 2019 at 1:43 pmThanks for sharing, this salad looks delicious! Our family doesn’t care for olives, do you think chopped red pepper would be OK in its place?
Wendie says
June 5, 2019 at 8:24 pmYes Lynn, I think that would be delicious, or it would be fine just leaving the olives out all together. Hope this helps 🙂

May 27, 2019 at 4:03 pmThis is a great macaroni salad! It’s simple and so yummy! I served it along side grilled hot dogs while we had out of town guests staying with us. Everyone loved it. I especially love that it’s quick to put together. Not a lot of chopping to do.
Wendie says
May 27, 2019 at 5:16 pmYay Christine! I’m so glad everyone loved it! Thank you for taking the time to share that with me 🙂

Gretchen says
April 20, 2019 at 8:02 pmWhen you say slice the eggs and fold them in gently, I dint understand. I look at the picture and don’t see “slices” of egg. I see the one slice on top. I am making it now for Easter and am super excited just don’t want to mess it up. Taking it to the bf’s family. Lol
Wendie says
April 20, 2019 at 8:25 pmIt just means after the salad is all mixed together. Add the sliced eggs in and gently fold (mix) them into the salad. You just want them to stay in bigger pieces. I hope you and your bf’s family loves it Gretchen 🙂
Gretchen says
April 20, 2019 at 8:30 pmThank you so much for your reply. That really helped. . I am sure they will love it!

Karen says
April 11, 2019 at 12:06 amI am planning on making this macaroni salad for Easter to go along with my ham. I was wondering what kind of mustard did you use in the recipe. Is it Dijon, brown or yellow.? I cannot wait to try this.
Wendie says
April 11, 2019 at 3:37 amI use yellow mustard. Hope you enjoy Karen 🙂

Char says
March 16, 2019 at 10:24 pmYours looks delicious but mine turned out too wet. And I even left the sour cream out.
Wendie says
March 17, 2019 at 3:12 amHmmm it should be creamy but not liquidy. The only thing I can think of was maybe your pasta wasn’t drained enough. 🙁
Pamela says
February 9, 2019 at 3:03 amCan’t wait to make this. Made a couple of other recipes You posted. Loved them all. But can you put in green olives with pimentos instead of black olives (hate black olives) ??
Wendie says
February 9, 2019 at 3:48 amOh yay Pamela so glad to hear that. Sure you can add green olives or leave them out all together. 🙂
Diane says
December 30, 2018 at 2:15 pmThis recipe doesn’t look appetizing at all. At least to me.
Wendie says
December 30, 2018 at 7:57 pmWell Diane, The good thing about that is nobody is forcing you to make it. What gets me is the fact that you found the need to even post that comment.
Paula says
March 21, 2019 at 5:09 pmIt looks so appetizing to me that I’m Making for guests right now after having read the recipe 5 seconds ago. I’m on it 😜
Wendie says
March 21, 2019 at 5:50 pmYay!
Rachel says
March 23, 2019 at 9:59 pmIt looks very appetizing and I think that was very rude of Diane. If you can’t say something nice then don’t say anything at all!!!!
Wendie says
March 23, 2019 at 10:07 pmThank you Rachel! I totally agree 🙂
Amy says
March 24, 2019 at 10:46 pmThank you!!! I read her comment and couldn’t believe an adult would be that childish and rude! This recipe sounds delicious!
Brenda says

Debbie says
May 11, 2019 at 4:46 pmWhy would you choose to be deliberately rude about a recipe? That is just wrong.
Laurie says

June 13, 2018 at 11:41 pmI made this with leftover egg noodles and it turned out delicious! I had to omit the olives, pimentos and dill because we didn’t have them on hand. But it still turned out well.
