Peel the eggs and chop 2 of them – save the third for the garnish on top.

Mix all the vegetables and chopped eggs with the pasta.  Add one cup of the mayonnaise and the mustard and mix well.  If it’s too dry, add more mayonnaise.

Add the salt and pepper to taste.

Place in a serving bowl and smooth the top.  Put sliced egg over the top and sprinkle lightly with more paprika.
