- Combine the Salad: Add the cooled pasta and chopped hard-boiled eggs into the bowl with the dressing. Stir gently until everything is evenly coated.
- Optional Add-ins: If desired, fold in diced celery and chopped green onions for extra crunch and flavor. Stir everything together.
- Garnish: If you like, sprinkle paprika over the top for a little extra color and flavor.
- Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the pasta salad for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled and enjoy!
