- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 cup Red onion, finely diced
- 0.5 cup Celery, finely chopped

- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives, chopped
- 3 large Hard-boiled eggs, chopped

Instructions
Peel and dice the Yukon Gold potatoes into bite-sized cubes.
Place the diced potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt.
Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Be careful not to overcook.
Drain the potatoes and spread them out on a baking sheet to cool to room temperature.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, ranch dressing, and Dijon mustard until smooth.
Add the cooled potatoes, red onion, celery, dill, chives, and chopped hard-boiled eggs to the bowl with the dressing.
Gently fold the mixture to combine, coating all ingredients evenly with the dressing. Be careful not to break the potatoes.
Season with black pepper to taste, and adjust salt if needed.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, garnish with a sprinkle of paprika if desired.
