Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. For best results, chill for 2-3 hours. (30 minutes - 3 hours)
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.
