Boil the Potatoes: Start by washing and peeling the potatoes if preferred. Cut them into bite-sized chunks and place them in salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Drain and Cool: Once fork-tender, drain the potatoes well. Spread them out on a baking sheet to cool down.
Mix the Dressing: In a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until creamy and fully combined.
Add the Goodies: Gently fold in the cooled potatoes, chopped hard-boiled eggs, celery, and green onions.
Chill and Serve: Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least an hour before serving. Sprinkle with paprika before serving.
