For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and consider adding a handful of toasted sunflower seeds or chopped walnuts for added crunch and flavor. Feel free to substitute the sour cream with Greek yogurt for a tangier and lighter variation. You can also use mayonnaise if you prefer. If you're preparing this salad in advance, consider adding the tomatoes just before serving to prevent them from becoming soggy. Experiment with different types of cheese. A sharp provolone or crumbled blue cheese would also be delicious. To elevate the flavor profile, consider adding a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the dry ranch dressing mix.
