Herbed Macaroni Salad with Shrimp

Herbed Macaroni Salad with Shrimp
  • 1 cup ditalini pasta
  • 1 cup mayonnaise, or more to taste
  • 4 ribs celery, finely chopped
  • 4 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and sliced
  • 12 ounces frozen cooked small shrimp, thawed, or more to taste
  • 3 sprigs fresh parsley, or as desired


  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook ditalini pasta in the boiling water, stirring frequently, until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain and rinse pasta under cold water.
  2. Combine pasta, mayonnaise, celery, green onions, red bell pepper, lemon juice, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until macaroni salad is well combined.
  3. Set a few egg slices aside for garnish and stir remaining egg slices into macaroni salad. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
  4. Stir shrimp into macaroni salad, adding more mayonnaise if salad is dry. Garnish salad with reserved egg slices and parsley sprigs.
