For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the dressing. If you prefer a lighter dressing, you can substitute Greek yogurt for half of the mayonnaise. Feel free to customize the salad with your favorite vegetables, such as cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, or bell peppers. For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon bits and add toasted walnuts or pecans for a satisfying crunch. The dressing can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
