Instructions
- Hard boil the eggs. My preferred method is to time 10 minutes from when the eggs have started to boil, and then I drain them and rinse them under cool water then let them sit in cold water in the pan they were cooked in until they've cooled (about 5-10 minutes). Peel and chop them.
- Cut the bacon into small pieces (I find it easiest to do this with kitchen shears). Fry in a skillet over medium-high heat until crispy (about 10 minutes) while the eggs are cooking/cooling. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate once cooked.
- Meanwhile, make the dressing by mixing the mayo, sour cream, balsamic vinegar, and garlic together in a small bowl. Taste and adjust as needed.
- Assemble the salad by tossing the spinach with the dressing and bacon pieces. Add the eggs on top. Season with salt & pepper to taste and serve immediately.
Notes
- Serves 2 as a main course or 4 as a side salad.
- This spinach salad can also be found on page 214 of the Salt & Lavender: Everyday Essentials hardcover cookbook.
