🥄 Step-by-Step Cooking Guide:

Slice and Season:

• Cut cucumbers into bite-sized slices.

• Add cheese, bacon bits, and seasonings — don’t skimp on the Old Bay and Salad Supreme for flavor fireworks!

Dressing and Tossing:

• Drizzle the avocado lime ranch dressing evenly.

• Toss everything together gently to coat all the cucumber slices in creamy, spicy goodness.

Tip: If you like extra dressing, feel free to add an extra tablespoon!

🛒 Ingredient Details and Substitution Tips:

• Cucumbers: Look for firm, fresh cucumbers. English cucumbers work great if you prefer thinner skin.

• Shredded Cheese: Sharp cheddar is my personal fave, but Monterey Jack or a Mexican blend also shine here.

• Bacon Bits: Real bacon crumbles bring the best smoky flavor; plant-based bacon bits are a good vegetarian option!

• Seasonings:

  • Old Bay adds savory spice.

  • Salad Supreme brings a pop of bright, tangy flavor.
    (If you don’t have Salad Supreme, you can sprinkle a little paprika and parmesan instead!)

• Dressing:

  • Avocado lime ranch is creamy and zesty.

  • No avocado lime? Regular ranch or a cilantro-lime dressing work beautifully too.

🍽 Recipe Variations and Serving Suggestions:

Flavor Variations:

• Spicy Kick: Add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes or a few dashes of hot sauce.

• Tex-Mex Twist: Add a handful of corn kernels and a squeeze of fresh lime juice!

• Greek Style: Swap ranch for tzatziki and sprinkle with feta.

Dietary Variations:

• Vegetarian: Use veggie bacon crumbles.

• Dairy-Free: Swap shredded cheese with a dairy-free alternative and use a dairy-free ranch.

Serving Ideas:

• Serve alongside grilled chicken or burgers for a fresh side.

• Pack it into lunchboxes for a cool, crunchy treat.

• Pair it with a glass of iced tea for the ultimate afternoon snack.

🧊 Storage and Make-Ahead Information:

• Storage: Best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours.

• Make-Ahead Tip: Slice cucumbers and prep toppings ahead — toss everything together right before serving to keep cucumbers crisp!

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Can I use a different dressing?
A: Absolutely! Any creamy dressing like classic ranch, cilantro-lime, or even Caesar can work.

Q: How long will this snack stay fresh?
A: Best eaten within a few hours. The cucumbers release water over time, which can thin the dressing.

Q: Can I make it ahead of time?
A: You can prep the ingredients ahead, but toss with dressing just before serving for maximum crunch.

Q: What’s a good dairy-free cheese for this?
A: I love using Violife dairy-free cheddar shreds — they melt and taste amazing!
