Peel the hard-boiled Easter eggs and rinse them gently to remove any dye residue. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Chop the eggs into small pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chopped dill, sliced green onions, diced celery, and chopped sweet pickles to the bowl.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper. Stir everything together gently until well combined.
Taste the egg salad and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt, pepper, or mustard to suit your preference.
Transfer the egg salad to a serving dish. If desired, sprinkle paprika over the top for a pop of color and flavor.
Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Enjoy your Easter Egg Salad on its own, as a sandwich filling, or wrapped in lettuce leaves for a lighter option!
