Creamy Cucumber Cheddar Bacon (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Main Ingredients

01 - 2 to 3 cups (approximately 320–480 g) sliced cucumbers
02 - 120 ml shredded cheddar cheese
03 - 55 g cooked and crumbled bacon
04 - 120 ml ranch dressing or sour cream

→ Seasoning

05 - 1 teaspoon dried dill (optional)
06 - Salt, to taste
07 - Ground black pepper, to taste

# Instructions:

01 - Place sliced cucumbers in a large mixing bowl. Gently toss with ranch dressing or sour cream to coat evenly.
02 - Fold in shredded cheddar, cooked crumbled bacon, and dill if using until ingredients are distributed throughout.
03 - Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, mixing gently for even seasoning.
04 - Cover and chill for 10 minutes before serving to intensify flavors, or serve immediately for a crisp texture.

# Notes:

01 - English cucumbers offer fewer seeds and a tender texture; peel and deseed standard cucumbers if preferred.
02 - Freshly cooked bacon yields superior flavor, though ready-made bacon bits are suitable for convenience.
03 - Allowing the prepared salad to rest for several minutes before serving helps the flavors meld.
