Instructions

  • If you haven't already, chop the bacon into bite-sized pieces, then transfer it to a large skillet and cook it until crispy. Use a slotted spoon to transfer it to a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Next, make the dressing: whisk the yogurt, mayo, honey, vinegar, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl; set aside.
  • Last, assemble the salad: place the peas, bacon, red onion, and cheddar cheese into a large bowl, then pour the dressing overtop and stir to combine. Add more salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!
