For a lower-fat option, use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise, or a combination of both. To toast the walnuts, spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly golden. Watch carefully to prevent burning. Feel free to add other vegetables to the salad, such as red onion, celery, or shredded carrots. The bacon can be substituted with vegetarian bacon bits for a vegetarian version.
