  2. Mix the Dressing: In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, vinegar, sugar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Combine the Salad Ingredients: In a serving bowl, gently fold in the cooled pasta, hard-boiled eggs, celery, red onion, and dill pickles until everything is evenly distributed.
  4. Fold in the Dressing: Pour the creamy dressing over the pasta mixture and fold gently until all ingredients are well coated.
  5. Chill the Salad: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to enhance the flavors.
  6. Serve and Garnish: Stir the salad before serving, and garnish with paprika and fresh herbs as desired.
