- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- ½ tsp sweet paprika

- 3 - Dice the eggs and place pieces in a large bowl.
- 4 - Add red onion, mayonnaise, mustard, paprika, and pepper and stir gently to avoid turning into a purée. Add bacon and chives (keep some to use at the end).
- 5 – Refrigerate salad for at least 1 hour. Top with reserved bacon and chives and serve.
