Ingredients
Spinach Salad
- 4 trips Bacon
- 6 cups baby spinach
- 1 small onion, sliced (red or white onion)
- 4 ounces sliced mushrooms
- 4 hard-boiled eggs
Warm Bacon Dressing
- 4 tablespoons bacon drippings
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons spicy brown mustard
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (honey could be substituted)
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Spinach Salad
- In a large skillet over medium high heat, cook 4 pieces of bacon. When cooked, remove the bacon to a plate covered with paper towels to drain. Break bacon into small pieces. Pour the bacon fat into a medium bowl.
- Boil the eggs to make hard boiled eggs. See notes below for how I make mine.
- In a large bowl, add fresh baby spinach, sliced onions, sliced mushrooms, bacon pieces, and sliced hard boiled eggs.
Warm Bacon Dressing
- In the medium bowl with the bacon drippings, add 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic, 2 teaspoons spicy brown mustard, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour immediately over salad. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs recipe
- I recommend using Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs recipe to make the hard boiled eggs. Otherwise, you can cook eggs in boiling water until they become hard boiled.
- Use Fresh baby spinach. Frozen spinach will not work in this recipe.
- It is important to cook the bacon immediately before assembling the salad and the dressing because you need the bacon drippings to still be warm.
- If you like, add sliced avocado, or crumbled feta or bleu cheese.
