Loaded Spinach Salad
Description
The Loaded Spinach Salad uses fresh spinach leaves as the base, layered with crumbled gorgonzola cheese that adds a sharp and creamy profile. Fried and crumbled bacon contributes smoky, salty crunch, while caramelized onion slices bring a hint of sweetness and softness. Toasted pecans add a nutty crunch, and chopped avocado provides creamy, mild richness.
The ingredients are combined in a large bowl and tossed with a dressing of choice, allowing customization. The mix of bold, creamy, sweet, and crunchy components makes this salad varied and satisfying. It works well as a side dish or a light main when topped with additional protein.
