Peel cooked eggs; cut each in half; remove egg yolks; transfer all yolks to a bowl; chop up egg whites; set aside.
Cook the macaroni according to the package instructions; drain; rinse with cold water. Set aside.
Mash up egg yolks with a fork; season with salt and pepper. Add more salt and pepper, if needed. Add mustard and mayonnaise to the egg yolks; stir until well combined. Add the macaroni to a large bowl; add egg yolk mixture, chopped egg whites, pickles, onion, celery, olives and paprika; stir well until combined. Season to taste. Garnish with more paprika and chives.
*To get perfect hard boiled eggs each time, add eggs to a saucepan, cover with at least 2 inches of cold water. Bring the water to a full boilwith big boiling bubbles, turn off the heat and cover the pot. Keep the saucepan on the burner for about 10 - 12 minutes. Run cold water over the eggs; peel under the cold tap, to make it easy to peel the eggs. Also, adding a bit of salt or vinegar to water for the eggs, will prevent the eggs from cracking while cooking.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
