Place the eggs in a medium pot and cover them with cold water by at least an inch.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pot, turn off the heat, and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for at least 5 minutes before peeling.
While the eggs are cooling, prepare the dressing by mixing the low-fat Greek yogurt, low-fat mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and apple cider vinegar in a mixing bowl.
Finely chop the fresh chives, fresh parsley, and celery stalk, and add them to the bowl with the dressing.
Season the dressing with salt, black pepper, and paprika, stirring to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
Peel the cooled eggs and chop them into bite-sized pieces.
Gently fold the chopped eggs into the dressing until they are evenly coated.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.
Serve chilled or at room temperature. This egg salad is delicious on its own, as a sandwich filling, or served over a bed of greens.
