For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and consider adding a sprinkle of smoked paprika to the vinaigrette for a similar smoky flavor. Feel free to experiment with other vegetables such as corn, avocado, or chopped tomatoes. If you don't have fresh jalapeños, a pinch of red pepper flakes can be substituted. This salad is best served cold.

The longer it marinates, the richer and more complex the flavors become. Perfect for picnics, potlucks, or a delightful side dish.
