I'm not a big fan of mayonnaise-based dressings, so I used a vinaigrette instead. It was still delicious, and it was a healthier option.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover beans and bacon. It's also a great make-ahead salad, as the flavors meld together nicely overnight.

I'm on a diet, so I used low-fat bacon and Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise in the dressing. It was still delicious, and it was a healthier option.
