For a tangier flavor, substitute a portion of the creamy salad dressing with sour cream or plain Greek yogurt. To add a bit of spice, include a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the dressing. For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and add sunflower seeds or chopped walnuts for added crunch. This salad is best served chilled. It can be made a day ahead of time, allowing the flavors to fully develop.
