8 large eggs
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon yellow mustard
1/4 cup chopped green onion
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika

Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 10–12 minutes.
Transfer eggs to an ice bath until cool. Peel and chop the eggs into small pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine chopped eggs, mayonnaise, mustard, green onion, salt, pepper, and paprika.
Stir gently until well combined, leaving some texture.

For added crunch, mix in celery or chopped pickles.
