Slice a small amount of red onion, not too big or too small.

Add 2 oz of real bacon bits into the salad bowl.

Sprinkle in half a packet of ranch powder seasoning and mix it well with the peas before adding other ingredients.

Add 4 oz of sharp cheddar cheese, reserving half for garnish, and fold gently to avoid mushing the cheese.

If using, add boiled eggs and fold gently into the mixture.

Garnish the salad with the remaining sharp cheddar cheese on top.
