Salad with Parmesan, Bacon and Spicy Croutons

The main focus of this dish is on the crunchy aromatic croutons. I recommend using parmesan cheese specifically to give it a piquant taste. The salad can be left without dressing or you can add vegetable oil to taste. The specified ingredients are enough for 6-8 servings.
