I once had a simple garden salad with dressing that featured bacon and cheddar cheese. Having remembered this, I had to try and make one. Recipes for bacon-cheddar dressings are widely available on the Internet, but most of them were too fancy (complicated) for my tastes (or my zeal), so I decided to come up with one of my own.

  • Cheese grater (optional)
  • Knife
  • Cutting board
  • Common kitchen measures and tools

Ingredients:

Item Amount
Mayonnaise Sugar-free 1/2 cup
Sour cream unsweetend 1/2 cup
Sauce Worcestershire 1/2 tsp
Olive oil Extra virgin 1 Tbs
Vinegar Your favorite 1 Tbs
Mustard Dry, ground ¼ tsp
Garlic Dry, granulated ¼ tsp
Salt Common ¼ tsp
Black pepper Dry, ground ¼ tsp
Cheese Cheddar, extra sharp, grated 2 oz
Bacon Fried crispy, crumbled oz

Directions:

  1. Measure all ingredients but the cheese and bacon into the blender
  2. If the cheese is not already grated, then grate the cheese finely and add to the blender
  3. Dice the bacon finely and add to the blender

Use as you would any store-bought dressing. Keep in mind that this home-made dressing has no preservatives. You should use it quickly. Keep refrigerated, and discard any unused dressing after 3 days.
