My Favorite Salad Recipe

mayonnaise

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: sour cream

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: colby cheese

Colby cheese is often less expensive than cheddar.

bacon

🥗Healthier: turkey bacon

💰Cheaper: ham

Turkey bacon is lower in fat, while ham is often more affordable.

Start by chopping the red onion into small pieces, using about three slices.

Chop the cooked bacon into smaller pieces and warm it in the microwave for about 1-1.5 minutes.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the two bags of fresh peas with the chopped red onion and chopped bacon.

Add 1 cup of mayonnaise to the bowl with the peas, onion, and bacon.

Add a handful of sharp cheddar cheese to the mixture.

Stir in the entire packet of ranch powder.

Mix all the ingredients together until well combined.

Transfer the salad to a serving dish and serve immediately or chill before serving.
