Preparation

  1. 1

    Boil the Eggs

    Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pot, remove it from heat, and let it sit for 12-15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cool and Peel the Eggs

    After the eggs have finished cooking, transfer them to a bowl of ice water to cool for about 5 minutes. Once cool, gently tap the eggs on a hard surface and peel off the shells.

  3. 3

    Chop the Ingredients

    Finely chop the celery and green onion. Set aside.

Mixing

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, chop the peeled eggs into small pieces. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, chopped celery, and green onion to the bowl.

  2. 5

    Season the Salad

    Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and paprika over the egg mixture. Mix everything together until well combined and creamy.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve the Egg Salad

    Transfer the egg salad to a serving dish or individual bowls. Optionally, garnish with additional paprika or chopped green onions. Serve on its own, in a sandwich, or with crackers.
