  1. Cook the pasta by boiling salted water. Add macaroni and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and rinse under cool water.
  2. Prepare the eggs by placing hard-boiled eggs in ice water to cool. Peel, chop egg whites, and mash yolks before adding to pasta.
  3. Add chopped celery, red onion, green onion, and bacon to the pasta and egg mixture. Toss gently to combine.
  4. Make the dressing by whisking together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  5. Combine the dressing with the pasta salad and fold gently to coat evenly. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  6. Garnish with extra green onions and paprika. Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.
