- 2 ribs celery, chopped
- ½ tsp. paprika
- ½ tsp. salt

Method
- Cook the macaroni following the package instructions until al dente, drain it well, and let it cool slightly so the dressing does not melt.

- Add the mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, vinegar and sugar to the mashed yolks and stir until a creamy paste forms.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced egg whites, chopped red onion, chopped celery and the cooked pasta.
- Pour the yolk dressing over the pasta mixture and mix until everything is fully coated.
- Season with the salt, pepper and paprika and finish with sliced green onions over the top.
