For a vegetarian version, omit the bacon or substitute with smoked paprika for a smoky flavor.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as Gruyere or Monterey Jack, for a unique twist.

    This salad was a huge hit at our family gathering! The 24-hour chill really made a difference in the flavor.

  • Abigayle Crooks

    I was skeptical about the sugar in the dressing, but it balanced the sour cream perfectly. Will definitely make again!

  • Maeve Jacobi

    The bacon adds such a nice smoky touch. I used a mix of cheddar and pepper jack for an extra kick.
