For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the curry dressing. To toast the pine nuts, spread them in a dry skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly golden and fragrant. Watch carefully, as they can burn quickly. The salad can be made ahead of time, but it's best to add the bacon just before serving to maintain its crispness. Feel free to experiment with other vegetables! Cauliflower, shredded carrots, or bell peppers would all be delicious additions. If you prefer a tangier dressing, add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. For a lighter salad, you can substitute Greek yogurt for half of the mayonnaise.
