Salad with Bacon & Ham Yogurt Dressing
A big, crunchy salad with a creamy Greek yogurt dressing full of bacon, ham and chives.
This is one of those meals I keep coming back to. The dressing is the star: creamy Greek yogurt with crispy bacon, ham and fresh chives. Make a big bowl of whatever salad vegetables you like and pour it over.
